October is Domestic Abuse awareness month ⚠

Abuse can be physical, emotional, financial or sexual and carried out by a partner, ex-partner or family member.

Deaf and Deafblind people are 2-4 times more likely to experience Domestic Abuse than the hearing community.

If you need support, please contact our teams https://www.bid.org.uk/contact-us/

We can help refer you to The Deaf Health Charity SignHealth, or you can refer yourself by visiting their website https://signhealth.org.uk/with-deaf-people/domestic-abuse/

While there is currently no cure for dry AMD, treatments for wet AMD can help protect sight if caught early.

Could you be at risk of glaucoma? πŸ‘€

Glaucoma often develops slowly, painlessly, and without obvious symptoms, but it can lead to permanent sight loss if left untreated.

The good news? Early detection through routine eye tests can make all the difference.

Book your eye test today and encourage your loved ones to do the same!
