TruckEast supports Sense Deafblind Awareness Week 21 - 27 June

Sense is a national deafblind charity, focussing on the individual needs of children and adults who are deafblind. This week is Deafblind Awareness Week, supported by business and celebrities.

Deafblindness is a visual and hearing impairment. These impairments can be of any type or degree. Most people who are deafblind have some useful vision and/or hearing.

Sense works in partnership with others – deafblind people, their families, carers and professionals – to ensure that everyone challenged by deafblindness or sensory impairment with other disabilities, has access to advice, opportunities and support.
