To thank you for participating in our survey, we are offering each participant 2 FREE tickets for the ‘BCDH Inclusive Community Dance Festival’ on Monday 21 November 2022 from 7.00pm at Walsall Arena and Arts Centre. Please complete the survey by Thursday 17 November 2022 and enter your email below to secure your tickets, alternatively email Maggie@blackcountrydance.com.

Findings: The D-Sign Dance project in August 2022, identified a lack of opportunity to access dance provision for d/Deaf / Hard of Hearing people of all ages for leisure, recreation, fitness, and performance.

BCDH want to develop the work with Deaf/Hard of Hearing communities with a 4- week consultation period between October – November 2022.

The aim of the consultation: To speak to d/Deaf/ Hard of Hearing people in the Black Country community, and local d/Deaf & Hard of Hearing organisations, to find out their views on access to dance.

The Survey is anonymous, unless you choose to provide us with contact information.
