Being a mum comes with so many roles – advocate, teacher, comforter, cheerleader, problem-solver, and so much more. For mums of deaf children, that journey can bring extra challenges, but it is also filled with remarkable strength, patience, and love.
Every day you show up for your children in ways both big and small — learning, adapting, encouraging, and helping them grow with confidence in who they are. Your dedication, resilience, and care make a lasting difference in your children’s lives.
From all of us at Grampian Deaf Children’s Society, thank you for everything you do. Your love and commitment do not go unnoticed, and we are proud to have you as part of our community.
This is a special shout out to all the wonderful mums and mother figures who support and uplift deaf children every single day. 🌸
It promises to be a very special time together, and we can’t wait to share it with you all.
Sign-ups will be going live very soon, so please keep an eye on the website for more details. 👀
