DDL Danish Deaf Association and the National Police have in collaboration developed an app that makes it possible to call the police, fire brigade or ambulance without having to send an SMS or call 112 via an interpreter. The project is funded by Trygfonden. One can use the app for both iPhone and Android (https://ddl.dk/for-medlemmer/akuthjaelp-til-doeve/). https://ddl.dk
Hoereforeningen The aim of the Danish Association of the Hard of Hearing is to improve the conditions for children, young people and adults who are hard of hearing and for those who have become deaf, have undergone a cochlear implantation, suffer from Tinnitus, Menière’s syndrome or other sound and hearing disorders. The association has local branches in most of the Danish municipalities. The local branches work on a political and social level. https://hoereforeningen.dk Facebook

Dansk Blindesamfund Dansk Blindesamfund (Danish Blind Society) is the interest group for people with visual impairments. Together we challenge blindness. Every day it fights to ensure that blind and partially sighted people can participate and contribute on an equal footing with everyone else: That more people get an education. More people into work. That fewer are lonely. More people living active and independent lives. And that more people are healthy and exercise. https://www.blind.dk Facebook Twitter
