In his intimate portraits and stories, deaf photographer Stephen Iliffe shares a vital message: with the right support, deaf people can do anything.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Stephen Iliffe grew up the only deaf kid at his mainstream school. He had no deaf adult role models to look up to. This fuels his drive to photograph deaf people from all walks of life and widely share their stories.

Stephen's portraits range from female vicar to Muslim kickboxer, deaf-blind athlete to fairground traveller, charity leader to fashion model. Each has their own story to share with us.

Deaf Mosaic brings deaf community stories into mainstream spaces with thought-provoking exhibitions at high-profile venues. Subject to funds, Deaf Mosaic is open to proposals to exhibit around the UK.

As an inspirational public speaker, Stephen also gives talks to a wide range of audiences - from global corporations to public services to local deaf centres.

Deaf Mosaic has featured several times

on national media - from Sky TV News to BBC TV to The Independent - using portraits and stories to raise deaf awareness.

"These photos are a gorgeous portrait of a diverse community of intertwining lives, experiences and journeys. For deaf children growing up today, they can look to this mosaic and see huge future possibilities."

As a writer, Stephen uses thought-provoking blogs to explore a range of topical issues around photography and deaf people. Read on!

Thank you for visiting the Deaf Mosaic project. Your feedback or questions are warmly welcomed. Stephen usually acknowledges all contact within 24 hours.

Our Mission

​If either one (or both) of your parents are Deaf, then you're a CODA. Regardless of whether you sign or not. We would love to hear from you!

CODAs are Children of Deaf Adults. Most people with Deaf parents are themselves hearing - an often quoted figure places the proportion of hearing CODAs at 90% of the Deaf-parented population.

As the only national organisation representing solely Children of Deaf Adults, CODA UK and Ireland was established in 2011 in order to:

​

Facilitate social interaction of CODAs with their peers

Provide peer support

Celebrate our heritage

We achieve this by arranging activities for CODAs of all ages - take a look at our
events page to find out more. Through the establishment and growth of our flagship CODA Camp, our social activities and over 18's 'CODA Weekenders', and continued engagement on social media, we see that there is a need for CODA UK and Ireland to expand our operations into new domains.

This means that we are in exciting times. We want to engage with the wider community - and our first step was to celebrate our 5th anniversary at an event in London with CODAs and our Deaf parents in 2017, since then we have celebrated our anniversary each year. This November will be our 8th anniversary!

Inspired to help us achieve these aims? Why not become a
volunteer? Keep an eye on our site for more details of how we will achieve our aims.
