Manchester Deaf Centre
Established in 1846, Manchester Deaf Centre is the largest local organisation to provide support to the local deaf community and beyond in Greater Manchester.
We host a variety of services and groups that offer support, learning and training opportunities, social events and much more.
We are proud to serve as the hub and the heart of Manchester's deaf community.
We work with many different organisations to promote access and inclusion for deaf and hard of hearing people within Manchester and its surrounding districts.
Manchester Deaf centre is also a Hate Crime Third-Party Reporting Centre, which is somewhere you can report a crime if it was motivated against your, disability, race, religion or beliefs, sexual orientation or trans gender identity or perceived disability, race, religion or beliefs, sexual orientation or trans gender identity.
Third party reporting centres for hate crime are based within organisations and groups across the City of Manchester, and independent from the City Council or Greater Manchester Police (GMP).
The reporting centres enable victims of hate crimes to both seek support and be encouraged to report hate crime and hate incidents in an environment of their choosing where they may feel more confident and comfortable.
Third party reporting can also be made directly to GMP by using the 101-telephone number or 999 if the incident is an emergency.
Or by accessing the national True Vision hate crime reporting website: Report It
