This figure rises to almost 75% of those over 60. North Wales Deaf Association is the regional organisation that supports all Deaf, deafened, hard of hearing and deafblind people throughout the six counties of North Wales as well as their families, friends, carers and colleagues.

GIVE IN MEMORY The loss of a loved one is often a very difficult time but people can sometimes find help and consolation in doing something positive in memory of that person. Some people choose to hold a collection in memory of their loved one at their funeral. Other people decide to ask for donations to the North Wales Deaf Association in lieu of sending flowers for a funeral. Family and friends can either send donations directly to us, marked with the name of the person they are remembering on any correspondence, or to your funeral director who will usually be happy to co-ordinate this for you and forward donations to us. We will acknowledge all donations and inform you of the total amount collected. LEGACY Where's there's a Will there's a way!
