Professional Deafblind Manual Services

PN Inclusion provides expert Deafblind Manual Services to support accessible communication for Deafblind individuals in settings including medical appointments, education, workplace environments, and social care.

Our qualified Deafblind Manual professionals use tactile fingerspelling, based on British Sign Language (BSL), to convey words and sentences directly onto the recipient’s hand. This enables clear access to spoken and visual information through touch.
