Deaf Awareness Week, 1st - 7th May

EDM number 2054 in 2005-06, proposed by Malcolm Bruce on 27/04/2006.

That this House recognises that Deaf Awareness Week takes place between 1st and 7th May this year in order to raise awareness of the 8.7 million deaf or hard of hearing people in the UK; acknowledges the importance of this week in raising awareness and promoting the positive aspects of deafness; notes the theme of this year's campaign, `Look at Me', which highlights the many varied types of communication used by deaf, deafened and deafblind people such as sign language and lip-reading; encourages people to look at someone who is deaf or hard of hearing to assist with communication; supports the work of nearly 100 local and national deaf charities and organisations that are members of the UK Council on Deafness; and congratulates all those hosting or taking part in events to support Deaf Awareness Week.

This motion has been signed by a total of 95 MPs.
