Who we are Hi, I'm Jackie Gloyn. I set up CDCC back in 2011 when I noticed that Deaf children in the area needed support locally. Up till 2015 I was a trustee of GDA and now proudly hold the title of GDA Ambassador. I used to run a playgroup many many years ago - I am now a grandmother, and still love children. I have severe hearing loss and in 2012 I had a cochle implant fitted. , I'm Kim Fletcher. I am profoundly Deaf from birth. From age of three I went to for the Deaf in Exeter and then at six my parents moved to Gloucestershire and I went into mainstream schooling. I did struggle with my education, but at 16 I went back to Exeter for further education and discovered BSL. I am a mum of three and all my children are hearing. I am married to Richard who also Deaf. My youngest comes to CDCC and loves it! Hi, I'm Judy Wood.I am married with two daughters and four grandchildren. I often help with my younger daughter’s nursery in Cirencester. I was invited to join the team of volunteers to help run CDCC four years ago and what a pleasure it has been. To see the children playing and inter-acting with one another is just wonderful and proves how essential this club is. Hi, I'm Nicola Hewlett. I'm married to Mal, we haven’t got any children, but have two dogs and two cats. Scouting has been a big part of my life and working with children brings me great enjoyment - I find their outlook on life inspiring. I've been a CDCC volunteer almost since the start and my role is to keep track of the money and the craft stock and to have fun with the children. I have just finished my first training at BSL. I have met some really lovely people through volunteering at CDCC. Hi, I'm Justine Norman. I have been completely deaf in my left ear since I had mumps when I was four years old. I am married and we have two children and two dogs. I found out about CDCC when my niece started coming to the club. She was born in 2015 with moderate hearing loss. I love volunteering for CDCC, helping the children with crafts, seeing them enjoying themselves and having fun.
