It is estimated that there are over 450,000 Deafblind people in the UK. As such, there is a huge demand for access to appropriate communication support for medical appointments, Access to Work, and social care assessments. At Prestige Network, we strive to make communication accessible to all and work hard to provide interpreting services tailored to the needs of each Deafblind client.
Prestige Network’s Deafblind Manual Services provide registered Deafblind communication professionals to communicate with clients using Deafblind Manual, a specialist form of tactile communication that borrows from the British Sign Language alphabet to fingerspell words and sentences onto a client’s hands.
Our Deafblind Manual Services are designed to ensure that multi-sensory impaired persons have access to clear, accurate, and effective communication in various settings.
Deafblind Manual is a specialist form of tactile communication that utilises the British Sign Language alphabet. Words and sentences are fingerspelled onto a client’s hands, allowing those with multi-sensory impairments to receive and understand information. This method is highly effective in ensuring clear and accurate communication for Deafblind individuals.
All our Deafblind Manual interpreters are registered with the National Register for Communication Professionals working with d/Deaf and Deafblind persons (NRCPD). They possess extensive experience and training in providing tactile communication, ensuring you receive professional and reliable services tailored to your specific needs.
Absolutely. We understand that every client has unique communication requirements. Our services are fully customisable to meet your specific needs, whether for medical appointments, social care support, or educational settings. We offer personalised consultations and ongoing support to ensure our services are effective and meet your expectations.
