To celebrate this special award the College will be having the first Deaf Event 2007 open day, at The Harrow Weald campus from 11.00am - 1.00pm on Tuesday June 12.
Everyone is welcome and people will have the opportunity to take part in a live sign language class, explore the facilities, meet staff and students and learn about their success stories, as well as have a chance to see technologies and literature available for the deaf community. There will also be refreshments and light buffet served throughout the event.
