  • The design on this mug shows the finger spelling alphabet which people with a hearing impairment use as a means of communication. Breakthrough Deaf-Hearing Integration is the organisation that designed the mug. Now called DeafPLUS, this charity has its London base in Whitechapel. They point out that 'Deafness does not have the universal appeal or visibility to attract funding, yet it affects 14.5% (or 9 million) people in the UK.'

What is this?

Not every record in Collections Online is complete. Some have low quality images designed purely for recognition, while some have been catalogued only to a basic standard. This graphic is designed to give you an impression of the quality of data you can see. 100% meets all our current data standards and has a high quality image, 20% is a basic record with no image. Individual record quality can change over time as new photography is carried out and records are worked on.
