October 2014 Update


Dear Friends & Partners,
Yes,  Deaf Hearing United is the new name for our  Deaf Connections partnership.Our vision, values and goals remain unchanged. We want the name of our partnership to focus on our vision rather than our starting point. Please welcome Deaf Hearing United! More explanation in our next update.

   Yesterday’s events here at the Toburo family, above left, and at Eruba Primary School deaf Unit (above right) are so typical of our work. Sam, in the foreground is partially deaf/blind, with his father and uncle behind. Wth the uncle’s help and yours we were able to persuade Sam’s father to bring him back to Eruba deaf unit. Sam’s father is also happy for Sam to help lead a sign work-shop for his family back home at the end of term. Hs fellow boarders were really happy to seem him back too. More news below of our transition from GB(!) back to Uganda.
