Deaf Asians get the TOUR


They could have gone to Billy Smart's and seen a  few elephants ......   when are deaf going to realise they are being used by these politicians, who are in fact voting away their right to welfare benefits and support ?  

Members of the deaf community were given a guided tour of Parliament and presented with a certificate recognising the work of their volunteers.

The committee and volunteers of the Harrow Asian Deaf Club (HADC) were invited to attend a special reception in Westminster by Harrow West MP Gareth Thomas on March 8.  Mr Thomas gave a speech and used some basic sign language to thank the members.  He said the club had gone from strength to strength over the years and he was happy to recognise the contribution they have made to Harrow.

Asif Iqbal, president of HADC, said: “The quality of the volunteering work is excellent and it was very heart-warming and rewarding to see the group getting the recognition they deserved for their achievements.”
