Supporting people with deafblindness to live, learn and thrive.
In 2025, 27th June was officially recognised as International Day of Deafblindness, an incredible step forward in global deafblind awareness and advocacy. This milestone moment in disability advocacy puts deafblindness on the agenda of governments and organisations around the world, paving the way for policy which considers the inclusion and access of people with deafblindness in all areas of life, from healthcare and education to social security and employment. With awareness, we take the first step toward action.
Sense International is the only organisation dedicated to supporting people with deafblindness and their families. Across the 8 countries we work in, our programmes bring hope to families with nowhere else to turn, enable children to learn alongside friends, and work with local communities to break down barriers allowing every individual to thrive.
We can’t build a better world alone. Join us and help us to be there, no matter what.
