handle is hein.journals/solicjo152 and id is 1 raw text is: Vol 124 No 1 (pp 1-20) Every Friday 38p lelp the Deaf Commuicae.... -ca Deafness is the invisible handicap, it is a breakdown in communication between deaf people and the rest of the world and is too often treated with irritation rather than understanding. There is a growing realisation that manual sign language, interpretation for deaf people, can help to break down the communication barriers in the education of many profoundly deaf children, deprived of the natural means of learning through speech and hearing, and in further and higher education. Profound deafness creates special problems for the elderly - need of help continues to increase The British Deaf Association is deeply concerned in these matters and aims to maintain a continuing programme of work to overcome the barriers that isolate deaf people. So we make an urgent appeal that you will help us to maintain and expand the work on which so much progress, well-being and happiness depends. Legacies are important to us, so when the occasion arises, we ask your help.
