Abstract

This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctorate of Forensic and Clinical Psychology (Foren.Clin.Psy.D.) at the University of Birmingham.

This volume consists of three chapters: the first, a literature review of the prevalence of abuse within the deaf and hard of hearing population; the second is a qualitative study using grounded theory exploring professionals’ experiences when working with deaf offenders with mental health difficulties; the third chapter comprises a public domain briefing document which briefly provides a plain language explanation of both the literature review and the empirical paper.
