Deafblind UK at the National Centre for Deafblindness, Peterborough, works with people who are both deaf and blind. Its programmes for teachers and schoolchildren show them what it would be like to be deafblind and how to do sign language. A new heritage exhibition recently opened at the centre, which gives deafblind people the chance to explore their heritage and sighted hearing visitors an insight into the challenges faced by people with sensory impairments in the past and today. Visitors use their sense of touch to examine objects on display.

A brochure outlining the programmes and how they can be worked into the curriculum is available from tel: 01733 358 100; www.deafblind.org.uk
