Thanks to the generous support of public and corporate donations, Threshold, a national housing charity, is now able to provide its vital services to the Deaf Community via the Irish Remote Interpreting Service (IRIS).  

Since its foundation 40 years ago, Threshold has helped in the region of half a million people with a diverse range of housing problems including discrimination in terms of access to rented accommodation, illegal evictions, illegal rent increases and poor living conditions. Threshold can make a difference by providing advocacy, advice, Residential Tenancy Board representation and a Tenancy Protection Service. Figures reveal that Threshold has helped an average of 364 households a month to remain in their homes last year. It must be remembered that these are not just statistics, these are real people – men, women and children with lives, and hopes, and dreams.

To avail of Threshold’s services simply email: [email protected] and one of their trained liaison officer can arrange an appointment.

I’m doing a PhD at UCL Institute of Education looking at how sign language interpreting support is provided to Deaf students studying at university, and the experiences of Deaf students and interpreters.

The results I’m sharing here are the first part of my study. We all know Deaf students often have a lot of difficulties at university and our research project is looking at their sign language interpreting support.

There’s currently very little information about how interpreting support is provided and how Deaf students feel about their interpreting support. Therefore, the first part of this project was an information-gathering activity and we want to share some of the initial results.

Much of what we’ve found probably won’t surprise you, but we needed to collect the evidence to then move forward.

We are publishing a Guide to Northern Ireland Charities.The feature will hopefully allow some of the lesser known charities to inform our readers about the services they offer, who to contact for assistance and what makes their charity different from all the others.

The feature will be in the  main magazine and we are offering a full page  @ £300 (Normal rate card would be £1500)

This will be made up by a half page advertisement and a half page editorial. I am hoping you will decide to get involved.

Ulster Tatler is the only monthly glossy magazine in Northern Ireland that’s registered with the Audited Bureau of Circulations readership 256,000 and it will offer you the ideal platform within which to promote your plans for 2019.
