UK Council on Deafness
Founded in Sept 1993 by a consortium of deaf organisations, the UK Council on Deafness aims to achieve full participation in society for all deaf people and create an environment in which voluntary sector organisations working with deaf people can reach their full potential.
The first Deaf Awareness Week was held in America in 1951, and has continued to educate people about the many issues and difficulties that face deaf people in the world today.

After its inauguration in 2002, a “Sound Off” became traditional when fire stations across the world set off their sirens at noon local time for a 30 second tribute, followed by a minute’s silence in memory and respect for all Firefighters killed in the line of duty.
