Find Services

There are places, business and groups that help people with deafblindness.

They can provide

  • services
  • information
  • advocacy
  • equipment

Some services listed are Australian and some are International.

Some organisations that specialise in only blindness or only deafness are in the directory.  They may be able to adapt their services for someone with deafblindness.

There are two drop down filters that can help you search for Service type and / or Region. This is the best way to search the directory.

You can use the search bar to find words in the organisation’s title and description. This is not as effective as using the dropdown filters.

The list of organisations is not exhaustive. It may not include every service or organisation in Australia with deafblind expertise.

This directory is for information purposes only. Inclusion in the service directory does not imply:

  • affiliation with, or
  • endorsement from

Deafblind Information Australia.
