Wales Council for Deaf People
Key takeaways
- Wales Council for Deaf People suits a small nonprofit whose work supports deaf, deafened, hard of hearing or deafblind people in Wales, since its stated purpose covers adults and children across the whole country regardless of financial circumstances, and its stated geographic priority is Wales.
- The only spending figure given is £4183 for 4 laptops and 5 iPads for children and students, so a modest equipment-related request is the closest guide to size, though the annual report gives no usable grants total or grant range.
- The only application route described is through Teachers of the Deaf, who submit applications that the committee reviews and agrees, so a small nonprofit should first ask the Council how a request could reach it and whether it can apply directly.
- The annual report says nothing about timing or how competitive or relationship-led giving is, so approach the Council with a clear, specific need rather than assuming a steady round of grants.
