Recently, Deaf Connect supported the Tasmanian Deaf Sport Club’s Christmas in July dinner in Devonport! 🌟

We organised buses to bring regional Deaf Tasmanians together for the evening, because community connections shouldn’t be limited by distance.

Watch our video to see the impact this event had on the local community.
