Cambridgeshire Deaf Association

Cambridgeshire Deaf Association We’re here for local deaf people of all ages and their families to get the most out of life. We put deaf people first in everything we do.

We provide support, advocacy, social opportunities, care and a range of other innovative services like sign language classes, media, sports, deaf awareness training and campaigning. We operate every day of the week and every week of the year improving the wellbeing of deaf people. Every other month, a BSL lounge is run in Cambridge for deaf and hearing people to attend: https://cambsdeaf.org/community/deaf-pubs/cambridge-bsl-lounge/

🤍 Ann Ratcliffe, 1944 to 2026

Ann's son Ian has let us know that her memorial plaque was laid on Friday 18 September at Longthorpe Church in Peterborough.

Anyone who would like to visit, pay their respects or lay flowers is welcome to.

Ann was the first Deaf Chair of Cambridgeshire Deaf Association and the first person to be inducted as a Fellow of CDA. She led the charity with integrity and determination, and always put Deaf people and the community at the centre of our work.

We are grateful to Ian and the family for letting us share this with everyone who knew her.
