Albany Deaf Church

Albany Deaf Church is a congregation of the Church of Scotland with its own Kirk Session and Congregational Board. The 128 members are Deaf, using British Sign Language (BSL) as their means of communication.

The Albany Deaf Church's congregation shares a building with Greenside Church and holds services in the Albany chapel (within the church sanctuary). The chapel was dedicated by the Very Revd. John Miller, Moderator of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland in 2001.

The new Chaplain to Deaf people and Deaf Development Worker in the East of Scotland is the Rev. Rosie Addis. She can be contacted via email on raddis@cofscotland.org.uk or phone/sms 07738 983 393.

There is also the Albany Deaf Choir, which practices at Deaf Action on Albany Street. Please get in touch to get more details of practices and performances. A Sunday Service signed for the deaf is held on the last Sunday of each month in Greenside Albany Chapel at 2pm.

Sunday services are also held at 11am at the Trust Housing Association in Montrose Terrace, Edinburgh.
