Information Services

In 2005 MSDP created an information service to address the information and communication needs of the local Deaf community.  This department promotes the need for accessible information, as well as providing a translation service to address these needs. 

Under the corporate title of DeafAbility Productions Limited, the team liaise with local service providers to create accessible information for Deaf and Hard of Hearing people. 

Through personal knowledge of the Deaf community and media expertise, DeafAbility ensures that all projects are to a high standard of both commercial and sign language production. 

If you or your organisation require any information translating into a more accessible format, please contact us on 0151 230 5649 or email.
