I enjoy the flexibility of working with Deafblind Enablement because it allows me to work but still enjoy leisure time doing the things I want to do. Being part of a small friendly team who are committed to enabling deafblind people gives me a good feeling as we are all working to the same end.

The quality of work provided by Deafblind Enablement is extremely professional but at the same time warm and caring. Want to join the team? It's easy. Just complete an application form, provide necessary qualifications and you're well on your way.

Section 7 Guidance was introduced to make sure that deafblind people can receive support and services they require from local authorities. Typically, this might consist of providing a communicator-guide service for a set number of hours per week which might be delivered under contract on specified days and times.

The following is taken from feedback received from Philip, deafblind himself, following Debbie James undertaking a Specialist Assessment and preparing a report which was commissioned by the Local Authority.

Did you know that in 2011 we celebrate the 10 year anniversary of Section 7 “Social Care Guidance for Deafblind Adults and Children”. Debbie James, Director (and founder) of Deafblind Enablement, was involved in campaigning for it’s implementation and continues to push it forward by training assessors and fighting for the rights of deafblind people.
