Children & Families

Our mission is to create a welcoming and inclusive community where you can connect, share experiences, and access valuable resources.

We launched our Children and Families Service in 2025, and it has gone from strength to strength! We are excited to keep expanding our services to create dedicated support for children, young people, and their families who experience deafness or hearing loss. 

Whether you are seeking tools for communication, information on Deaf culture, educational resources, or home equipment, we’re here to help. Take a look at our ‘Staying Safe Online’ page to find lots of videos to help you keep children and young people safe online.

We strive to be a trusted hub, offering essential services and guidance, creating connections to build confidence and reduce social isolation. We aim to break down barriers and create an accessible environment where families can find the tools and support to thrive, no matter the challenge.

MSDP is at the heart of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing community in Merseyside, and we aim to create a welcoming environment where our members and their families, both hearing and Deaf, can spend time together. We regularly hold family events at our head office in Queens Drive at different times of year and for various occasions.
