NSPCC Learning has published a podcast episode looking at how the differing language and communication needs of d/Deaf children can affect their safety and the child protection support they receive. The podcast features a discussion with a panel of experts from the Social Workers with Deaf Children and Professionals Working Group, covering: supporting a d/Deaf child with reporting abuse; potential barriers to identifying safeguarding concerns; and avoiding assumptions around how d/Deaf children and young people prefer to communicate.
