Police Link Officers for Deaf people aim to promote equality of access to the police for people who are deaf, deafblind, deafened and hard of hearing in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight. We recognise that access means much more than how you get into a building or up the stairs! Access includes access to information and access to service. Whether you use Sign Language, Deafblind Manual or Lipread, the Link Officers are available to assist.
