The purpose of DSL is to relieve the isolation of the deaf community. We do this by providing premises where they can meet and communicate with other Deaf people in their own first language which is BSL. We do not manage the Deaf community. We provide social space and facilitate with them when asked. We also provide a drop in services which allows the Deaf to communicate with service providers. i.e. NHS, LA, Utilities companies, etc,

Objectives: The organisation is established for charitable purposes only, and in particular, the objects are: (i) The provision of recreational facilities, or the organisation of recreational activities, with the object of relieving isolation and improving the conditions of life for the Deaf Community in Lanarkshire. (ii) The relief of those Members of the Lanarkshire Deaf Community in need by reason of age, ill-health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage.
