"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."

Alexander Popham’s Notebook


A very successful event was held at Littlecote House Hotel, Hungerford on Sunday 24 June to celebrate the launch of Alexander Popham’s Notebook, which outlines the story of the Deaf Alexander Popham (1648-1707) and the discovery of his remarkable educational notebook which was written by Dr. John Wallis.


This book is now a welcome addition to the range of the Society’s publications, and details can be found in our New Books and Shop pages.


Loyal and True: The Life and Times
