"Welcome to the British Deaf History Society (BDHS) Website...

I am here at the Head Office which is based in Warrington, where we  have a small museum alongside the office.

We also have, in the next room, a research library, where people can come along and research Deaf History Issues, and which is constantly being added to and expanded.

We also have the BDHS Website, where you can access current information about what is happening about current and planned  events. This again is under continual updates and expansion."
