“The hearing world… they think deaf people are like monsters,” says Amy who is deaf and was born into an entirely deaf family. “The only thing different about me is my ears don’t work.” Around one in five people in the UK are deaf or have hearing loss. That’s 12 million people. And every day they are faced with a world that is not built for them. This film gives a glimpse of what it’s really like to be deaf in the UK, the language and community that’s built around it, and explores how we can make Britain more accessible, starting today. #skynews #deaf #deafcommunity SUBSCRIBE to our YouTube channel for more videos: http://www.youtube.com/skynews Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/skynews Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/skynews Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/skynews Follow us on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@skynews For more content go to http://news.sky.com and download our apps: Apple https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/sky-news/id316391924?mt=8 Android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bskyb.skynews.android&hl=en_GB Sky News Daily podcast is available for free here: https://podfollow.com/skynewsdaily/ Sky News videos are now available in Spanish here/Los video de Sky News están disponibles en español aquí: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzG5BnqHO8oNlrPDW9CYJog To enquire about licensing Sky News content, you can find more information here: https://news.sky.com/info/library-sales
