Dining in Darkness

If you have ever attended one of our Dining in Darkness in Deafening Silence events, you’ll know just how entertaining, yet enlightening, it can be. Following the success of these events, we are now offering you the chance to host your own Dining in Darkness in Deafening Silence at home!

We can offer one free pair of ear mufflers and eye mask along with your very own Dining in Darkness in Deafening Silence fundraising pack.

Should you wish to order a full home kit, it will cost a mere £25 and you will receive six eye masks and six ear mufflers, menus from previous  Dining in Darkness in Deafening Silence events and hand sanitizer, all contained in a rather swish, Deafblind Scotland kit bag.

By hosting your own Dining in Darkness in Deafening Silence, you are joining us in raising awareness of both the needs and potential of deafblind people. Don’t forget to keep us informed of your event by using the hashtag #dinedeafblind in all your social media postings so we can see what you get up to.

Call Julie on 0141 777 5830 to order your free pack or email communityfundraiser@dbscotland.org.uk
