GDA (Gloucestershire Deaf Association) is a local charity providing essential support for deaf, hard of hearing and deafened people across Gloucestershire. We offer practical help, emotional support, communication guidance and inclusive community activities to ensure every person can live confidently with hearing loss.

Every day, deaf people in Gloucestershire face barriers such as isolation, loneliness and lack of access. With your support, we can change that. Together, we can ensure no one in our deaf community is left behind.

From specialist deaf support services, drop-ins and equipment guidance, to British Sign Language (BSL) courses, family communication programmes, youth clubs and wellbeing activities. GDA supports deaf people, hard of hearing people and families across Gloucestershire.

Whether you are looking for Deaf support services, Hard of Hearing support, BSL classes, local hearing loss advice, or community groups for children, young people and adults – GDA is here for you.

We proudly support the Deaf and Hard of Hearing community across Gloucestershire.
