Talk at Ainsdale Natterjack WI

On Wednesday Carol, David and Tony went to the Ainsdale Natterjack WI to talk about the Deaf Centre and Hearing Dogs. The group were very interested and had a go at signing the alphabet. They asked a few questions too.

A donation of £40 was given to us which has been split between the Centre and Hearing Dogs. Both get £20 each. Thank you to the Ainsdale WI for this and for inviting us to talk to them.

Framed photo returned to Centre

Today Rev. Frank Naylor‘s son visited us to return the framed photograph of the Centre that was presented to Frank when he retired in 2006.

Rev. Frank passed away last year at the age of 86.

End of an era

It’s the end of an era. After many, many years the Saturday Morning Club has closed down. Their last session was on 2 July.

We would like to say a very big thank you to Peter, Katie, Helen, and others, who have been running the Saturday Club over the years.

The page for the Saturday Club has now been removed from our website.

Tuesday Club and Sign Right will continue as usual.

Rev. Frank Naylor has died

Rev. Hannah Lewis has been in contact to inform us of the sad news Rev. Frank Naylor has passed away. He was chaplain at St Helens Deaf Centre and later for the whole of Liverpool diocese (including Southport) for over 25 years.

Frank was also made a Canon of Liverpool Cathedral in recognition of his service, and after retirement in 2006 had a ministry there for some years.

No funeral details are available at the moment.

Happy New Year!

Hope 2022 will be a better year for everyone.

The Management Committee is aware Covid cases have risen over the festive period. We are monitoring the situation, but for now, the Centre will reopen as usual next week.

If any member feels unwell or tests positive for Covid, we would advise you to stay at home.

The Tuesday Club will be having their AGM on 11 January as planned.

If things change, please keep an eye on here for any updates.
