It’s all about ‘The Undateables’
Channel 4 have released another series of ‘The Undateables’ and there has been an element of controversy over the name of the show.

Spreading deaf awareness within schools!
In my opinion, deaf awareness is crucial in the hearing society, especially in schools. According to NDCS: ‘There are 35,000 deaf children and 85% of these are taught in mainstream schools’. This is a staggering amount, but there is still a lack of support and awareness of hearing loss. Due to this, many deaf children are underachieving in schools, and this really disappoints me. Most children can achieve anything given the right support.
First Parliament Experience!
Hi everyone!
Yesterday was the best experience I’ve ever had! I was invited by Action on Hearing Loss to attend their ‘Hearing Matters’ launch, in the Members’ Dining Room in the House of Commons! It’s the first time that I’ve been to Parliament, and fair to say it’s such a great memory to treasure.
Subtitled Cinema Update! Plus, Exciting News!
Hi everyone!
After all the palaver earlier this week with the subtitled cinema (more details- click here!). I’m pleased to have an update!
Cinema discrimination! – SUBTITLE IT!
Well today has been a rather surprising one…
It all started when my family were thinking of going to watch the new James Bond film at the cinema, however because there aren’t any subtitles, I can’t go. I asked mum to at least phone the cinemas up to see waht they’ll say, because they still haven’t replied to my emails.
Let’s just say, It didn’t work out…
