Kathryn Barnes
Meet Our Children and Family Coordinator
My role is supporting the growth and learning of Deaf and hard of hearing children and their families across Wales. While I occasionally work with children in schools, my main focus is on teaching and engagement outside the traditional classroom.
A key part of what I do is running our "Stay and Play" sessions, which are detailed in our Project Plant. These sessions are wonderful community hubs where children can learn and interact in an accessible environment, and parents can connect and share experiences.
I'm here to ensure that children have fun, engaging ways to develop key skills and that their families feel supported every step of the way.
I look forward to working with you!
