Jewish Deaf Association

JDA ensures that people who are Deaf or hard of hearing have the support they need to overcome challenges and enjoy life to the full. We empower individuals with hearing loss, tinnitus, and the Deaf community, as well as their families, carers, and professionals, supporting people of all faiths and at every stage of life.

Through over 40 services, JDA provides lifelong support – from practical help for vulnerable Deaf and Deafblind people, including those with dementia, to a welcoming community hub offering social, cultural and educational programmes. Our services include lipreading and BSL classes, hearing therapy, outreach, and specialist technology support.

We also support families with deaf children through expert guidance, peer networks and inclusive activities, while our pioneering Engage service is leading the way in improving care for people with hearing loss in residential settings. JDA is here to ensure no one faces hearing loss alone.
