I Am Hard of Hearing cards Following on from the huge success of GDA's Deaf Patient Support cards in August 2017, GDA has now launched a 'I am hard of hearing' card for those with an acquired hearing loss. The cards offer clear and simple prompts to help a person follow a conversation. The cards are free and are available upon request from the GDA office; in writing to GDA, Colin Road, Barnwood, Gloucester, GL4 3JL, by telephone on 01452 372999 or text 07875 610860. GDPR - safeguarding you and protecting your information You will have seen that new data protection laws came in to force in May 2018. Protecting your information is extremely important to us, and in order for GDA to be GDPR compliant, we have put additional security measures in place, as well as revising our Privacy Notice, which you can read on our website, www.gda.org.uk, or watch a BSL version on our Facebook page. If you have any questions about GDA and GDPR, please contact our Data Protection Officer on 01452 372999 or email dpo@gda.org.uk.
