Accessible Information Standard Part 2 event - Derby Feb 2025

Hello, I am Sean Richards (sign name),
from the BDA.

I'm Robin Ash from SignHealth.
It’s good to be here!

We previously had the AIS
Part 1 workshop at Derby Deaf Club,

and we're now going to have a Part 2
workshop. Robin, if you can explain why?

I would like to thank all of you who
attended the AIS Part 1 workshop.

We had interesting discussions, and I explained
about the Accessible Information Standards (AIS).

Unfortunately, we didn't have enough
time to talk about everything,

hence why we're doing a Part 2.

In this workshop, we are going to have the
opportunity to do a quiz to see whether

you can remember your
rights surrounding the AIS.

If you don't remember, don't worry!
I will reinforce the information for you.

I will then go on to explain about:
how you can record your communication needs,

whether it's BSL or if you need a
BSL Interpreter, how you'd prefer to

be contacted, how you want
to access written resources.

I will explain how you can notify this
information to your GP, the hospital,

dentist, or opticians.

If it is apparent that despite this information
being shared, the right support isn’t being provided,

or you're still being discriminated against,
and you don't know what to do?

I will explain the process of how to
complain using our SignHealth resources.

I'm going to share these with you and
it's so important that you come along

to Part 2 to have a greater
understanding around this topic.

It is paramount that you come along to the
Part 2 workshop to ensure everybody is

equipped and aware about how to complain.
We are here to support you with that,

so please come along to the workshop.
See you there! When is it, Sean?

Tuesday 25th March, 6pm-9pm.
It will be at Derby Deaf Club.

I am looking forward to
seeing you all there!

Interpreters and refreshments will be
provided for the event,

we hope to see the community come
along to an important topic that affects

their future.

Thank you, bye!
