DeafATW & RNID survey about AtW - we need MORE responses

1/8/2026

0 Comments

 
Survey closes Friday 16 January 2026

Thank you if you have answered or shared the survey, BUT we need more responses to be able to campaign effectively. Can you help?

I know of deaf people having budgets cut by up to 50% when they renew - DeafATW and RNID are gathering the evidence to challenge this and other problems with AtW.

If you haven't taken the survey yet - please do it now. It takes 15 minutes.

If you've already completed it - thank you! Now please:
  • Share with colleagues and friends who use AtW
  • Post on social media and explain why this matters
  • Help someone who might need support with the survey
The more of us who participate, the stronger our evidence base and the more effectively we can campaign.

Survey details:

You can take part if you:
  • Are deaf, deafblind or have hearing loss
  • Have AtW OR applied after 1st October 2024
  • Are over 18 and live in the UK

Available in English and BSL: click here for the survey.

Questions? Email [email protected] or [email protected]

There is power in numbers - let's use it.
