The East Anglia Working Group on Mental Health and Deafness continues to make good progress towards its aim of improving deaf people’s access to health services in East Anglia.

Lead organisations in the group have drafted a proposal to send to Primary Care Trusts (PCT’s) and the Strategic Health Authority (SHA) that should see the implementation of recommendations within the TEA Report within the region. For more information on the work of the group, please contact Peter Weston. 01553 773399
