Deaf Ethnic Women’s Association is a national organisation run and controlled by deaf women from minority ethnic groups. DEWA provides a range of support and empowers deaf ethnic women to have choice and control, be active and be successful in all aspects of their lives without compromising their identity. We provide them with useful information on health, benefits, housing, childcare, employment or education by offering them weekly drop-in service. We offer women 1 hour of individually remote support using Zoom. We also deliver workshops to increase deaf women´s awareness about their rights, choices and identification of abuse and oppression. dewa@dewa.org.ukhttp://www.dewa.org.uk/07597704472 (WhatsApp)We are mostly remotely working but our office is based in London.
