Sense of touch.

Touch is key

For people with hearing and sight impairment, touch can be important.
It helps with communication – many deafblind people use a form of sign language involving touch called hand-on-hand signing, or they may use their fingers to read Braille.
It helps with connecting – feeling the touch of their friends and loved ones becomes significant when you can’t see or hear.
It helps with learning – especially important for babies and children with sight and hearing problems.
