A website which gives deaf and hard of hearing people an opportunity of making online friends has been launched.
Deafies.co.uk aims to be a one-stop shop for everything a deaf person may need. There's news, forums, blogs and other facilities and attractions are in the pipeline. A spokesman for the site said: "The reaction so far has been favourable and we have some great ideas for the site in the coming weeks and months." One of those ideas is to introduce a facility by which deaf people can communicate via webcam. The spokesman added: "We think this would be a great way for deaf people to interact and make friends - which is the purpose of the site. "Deafies is run by deaf and hard of hearing people and we are learning how to create and run a site as we go along." Deafies is particularly keen to hear from other organisations which serve the deaf community so they can place links on their site as a service to deaf people generally. Ends http://deafies.co.uk |
