Happy Volunteers’ Week!

Happy Volunteers’ Week – a big thank you to all of our incredible Deaffest volunteers who have supported our festivals. We couldn’t have done it without you and your huge contribution of skills and time!

Deaffest 2017 Music Video

The FIRST ever music video that Deaffest has created by combining TWO incredibly talented Deaf professional artists from the UK and US – Chris Fonseca and Rosa Lee Timm! The NDCS’s children were inspired by these brilliant Deaf role models and joined in to create an amazing signed version of ‘I Believe’ by Yolande Adams, filmed and directed by acclaimed award winning Deaf Filmmaker Bim Ajadi and Music video producer Stacy Lawrence.
