Charis Townsend

Children and Young People’s Service Youth Worker

I am a 22-year-old Deaf individual who loves to share my love of sign language with everyone. I have been involved with many tv and social media events discussing how we can make places more accessible for the Deaf community and how to break down communication barriers which is so important. I love helping people and listening to Deaf people’s journeys and stories.

As a youth worker, my role involves working with d/Deaf, Hard-of-hearing young people, CODAs and siblings and planning fun and exciting activities for them which I really enjoy!
