"Many people think Deafblind individuals cannot do anything, but that is not true."

Meet Fairus. Whether she is using mental mapping to serve customers at her F&B job, studying online project management or hitting the running track, she approaches everything with an unstoppable drive to learn.

In this video, she shares her journey of defining what independence means to her.

As we celebrate five years of our Deafblind Programme, you can support more individuals like Fairus in building strong community connections and making their own choices in life: https://www.giving.sg/donate/campaign/beyond-sound--sight

From the dragon boat to the TV screen! 🚣‍♂️🎬

Community member Benson Loo recently landed a cameo in the Mediacorp drama Uniquely Ours for his first acting role.

Benson, who is Deafblind, shares: "Thanks to my near total blindness, I was unable to see the surroundings with the crew and filming equipment, but managed to calm myself down constantly and went with the flow."

Whether he is acting, working as a wellness therapist or dragonboating, Benson faces life with confidence.

Empower more community members to achieve their goals and live a good quality of life by partnering with our Deafblind Programme today.

Heartfelt thanks to everyone who celebrated with us today!

Signing in a camping ground? 🏕️✨

Our recent SgSL gathering took over a cool new location, right in the heart of town at SCAPE's Camping Ground!

More than 30 students, from beginner to advanced levels, joined us for an action-packed 2 hours. The time flew by with silent charades and creative storytelling using gestures and body language. It was a day filled with laughter, great teamwork and visual communication!

Huge thanks to everyone who came out. We’re already looking forward to the next one!
