Welcome to the Deaf Media Resource website. The site aims to provide
information and inspiration for deaf people who are interested in a career
in the Media.
The site has been developed as a partnership between Zebra Uno Ltd and Hi8us
Midlands Ltd. We will be continuing to further develop the site over the coming
months as we progress with our new workshops.
Zebra Uno provide media training workshops for Deaf people. Use the links
