How it works

A straightforward process, tailored to what you need.

  1. 1

    Tell us what you need

    Share a little about your organisation, audience and what you would like the support to achieve.

  2. 2

    We discuss the right approach

    We will talk through the relevant workshop option or employability support and how it could be delivered.

  3. 3

    Put it into practice

    Receive practical support designed around the setting rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.

Our approach

Communication access is about people, not assumptions.

Different people use different communication methods and face different barriers. With Meridian keeps the focus practical, accessible and relevant to the situation in front of you.

About With Meridian

Based in South Wales.

Delivery that suits the service.

With Meridian is based in Port Talbot. Deaf Awareness workshops are delivered face-to-face across South Wales. Delivery arrangements for employability support can be discussed separately.

We start with the setting, audience and communication needs, then discuss a practical approach that fits the organisation and the people involved.
