As wife to a profoundly deaf husband and mother of two hearing children, she has a wealth of experience in communicating with the deaf and demonstrated some of the signs.

She captivated members with her talk, which also highlighted problems facing deaf people, both generally and in their home environment, where audible smoke alarms and doorbells are of no use.
