Events
Fun Fridays are here!
Throughout the summer, Deaf Action have organised a range of events to get kids and young adults out exploring their local area. These events will be held on the 1st and 3rd Friday of each month and are open to deaf and hard of hearing young people, they can also bring along a friend or sibling.
If you or someone you know are aged between 12 and 18 years old, why not come along and enjoy the great outdoors – check out our diary below for upcoming events:
*If you wish to attend any of our Fun Friday events, please complete a parental consent form*
**Future events to be confirmed soon**
The charges for the majority of the activities will be met by Deaf Action, however on occasion there may be an additional small charge. Each young person should have some money with them for bus fares if required and money if they wish to buy a snack or juice.
All of our events are attended by a minimum of two Youth Leaders, with more available if required. Our Youth Leaders all submit regular disclosure checks.
