Introducing our brand-new Deaf Awareness Seminar: A smarter way to build inclusion

Imagine a workplace where every customer feels seen, valued, and understood. In today’s competitive marketplace, inclusion isn’t just a buzzword but a strategic advantage.

 

Did you know that one in six people in the UK has some level of hearing loss? That’s a substantial portion of the population and a significant part of your customer base. The spending power of disabled people and their families, known as the Purple Pound, is worth an estimated £274 billion.

 

Yet many businesses are unintentionally excluding deaf and hard of hearing customers, not out of malice, but simply through a lack of awareness.


The result? Missed opportunities, weakened brand loyalty, and a reputation gap in a world that increasingly values accessibility.

 

At Deaf Umbrella Ltd, we believe there's a better way. That’s why we're proud to launch our brand-new Deaf Awareness Seminar, part of our growing Deaf Awareness Training suite. This one-hour session, priced at £325 + VAT, is a simple, powerful investment in your team and your future.
