SignLOUD Research reports
Research led by Heriot-Watt University, University of Edinburgh and VAW services (including Deaf Links) explored the perspectives of deaf mothers and practitioners (e.g. police, domestic abuse services, etc.) on domestic abuse and communication issues and the impact on deaf women and children. Interviews with deaf mothers, workshops with support service practitioners, a range of stakeholders and policy experts will create recommendations to improve the response to the whole family.
