Scottish Sensory Centre faces closure

The Scottish Sensory Centre (SSC) is facing closure after the Scottish Government announced that it was pulling the plug on its funding.

Hosted by the University of Edinburgh, the SSC has played a significant role in the education of deaf, deafblind and blind pupils all over Scotland for many years. It has carried out crucial long term projects, including the Deaf Achievement Scotland Study, the BSL Glossary of Curriculum terms and V.I.Scotland.

Let's try and stop this closure.
Here's what you can do.

Write a letter expressing your concern and protest at the decision to close the centre and send it to:
