This is a valuable archive recording of a piece of Deaf history. More than an account of the formation and development of the CACDP, it is also the personal story of the founding of a Deaf charity. It gives some eye-opening insights into the process, including the uncertainty of government recognition and funding, denial of opportunity, releasing of untapped talent and also the occasional conflict and opposition. A recommended read for BSL tutors and examiners, charity administrators, students of social sciences and Deaf studies.
