deafPLUS / visionPLUS supports both deaf and visually impaired people. We do this in the following ways:
- Promoting independence – helping deaf and visually impaired people to choose equipment that will help them in their daily routines, and also help them safe.
- Developing potential – Supporting people into employment, providing skills training and volunteering opportunities.
- Promoting Wellbeing – Providing social opportunities to overcome isolation. Providing health workshops and materials.
- Promoting Change and Understanding – working to improve awareness of deaf and visually impaired people’s needs.
We are a national organisation with five centres (Bath, Birmingham, Whitechapel, Farnborough and Ealling) and two mobile advice centres.

Which charities can I support?
Donations can be made to any national/local charity or recognised good cause such as schools and scout groups.You might choose to donate to BT’s own charitable initiative, the BT Supporters’ Club, which seeks to transform the lives of young people through sport. Or you could choose to support one of our charity partners; Comic Relief, BBC Children in Need, ChildLine or Disasters Emergency Committee. Some people choose to support local causes like churches, hospices, schools or animal welfare schemes. Whatever charity you choose to support will receive more money through Payroll Giving than if you were to donate to them directly.
You can nominate more than one charity to benefit from your donations - and you can easily change the amount or nominated charities at any time. If your chosen charity is not listed on this site you can still support them but please include the charity number so there is no delay in forwarding on your donation. If there is a charity not listed that you would like to see here please email [email protected]
