Caithness Deaf Club

25 September 03
CAITHNESS DEAF CLUB is holding an Afternoon Teas with stalls in the British Legion Hall Thurso this Saturday 27/9/03 from 2 p.m. Admission is �1 for tea/coffee with home baking.

This event is to try to raise much needed funds for the Club. In the past an annual outing took place during the summer but this year due to shortage of funds no outing took place so this the Club's way of trying to self-sufficient. It is also a chance for the general public to try out their fingerspelling and signing skills or indeed learn more about how to gain these skills and the deaf community in general.

The Club meets every fortnight throughout the winter months and has a small membership of profoundly deaf adults (majority of whom are senior citizens) as well as a number of hearing adults who are interested in the deaf community.
