British Society for Mental Illness and Deafness - BSMHD
The British Society for Mental Health and Deafness (BSMHD) is the only UK charity that focuses entirely on the promotion of positive mental health of Deaf people. The charity actively works to reduce the stigma attached to mental health issues in the deaf community and they do this through delivery of training courses and distribution of information. <SEND>
Mental health includes healthy emotional, psychological and social development, the prevention and treatment of mental illness and other disorders. Although the main focus is on those who's first or preferred language is sign language, BSMHD is interested in the mental health of all deaf people, whatever their language preference, age of onset or degree of deafness.
