YOUTH GROUP: X-CITING! (23 JAN '10)
On 23 Jan 2010, 20 Deaf youth turned up for our X-citing! event in their cool sports attire to learn to play touch rugby and frisbee. Although the weather was hot, they were keen to learn from the coaches. The Deaf were soon grouped with some new hearing volunteers for friendly matches. Through this event, not only they learnt more about the finer techniques of the sports, and meaningful friendship was also developed between the Deaf youth and hearing volunteers.

DEAF GOT TALENT (19 DEC‘09)
TOUCH Silent Club’s Christmas event, “Deaf Got Talent”, saw 100 participants including Deaf clients, their families and hearing friends gathering for a time of fun and talent showcasing. The highlight of this event was a ‘Deaf Got Talent!’ show where the Deaf had the opportunity to showcase their talent such as hip-hop dancing, song-signing, drama and mime. Congratulations to the following winners of Deaf Got Talent:-
– Winner, Ronald Oliver Batchelor who performed a mime and runner up Eileen Aw Ai Fung who performed a song in sign language.
Our Deaf clients also had the opportunity to socialise and were involved in giving back to community by donating food items and participating in the Most Decorative Hamper activity where they decorated food hampers which were then donated to the elderly clients of TOUCH Home Care.
