Cambridgeshire Deaf Association (CDA) is a Deaf-led organisation. We promote the welfare and interests of Deaf people.
We believe Deaf people should receive the same access and opportunities as hearing people. We mainly support Deaf people whose first or preferred language is British Sign Language (BSL) but also work with people with all range of deafness.
If you feel that we can be of help to you or someone you know, please contact us and we will find out information for you, or, if we cannot, we will put you in touch with someone who can.
