Deaf TV is a non-profit local organisation which is based on the entusiasm of Deaf volunteers in Melbourne. Deaf TV is primarily funded through member donations and sale of products. This volunteer organisation does not receive any Government or private funding.

 

Deaf TV screens programs on a local community television Melbourne Channel 31 station every Monday at 7 p.m. and Tuesday at 9.30 a.m. 

We often film the activities in the Deaf Community as many as we can. Some Deaf producers may make their own sequences and may submit theirs to us. We will have a look and edit them for our Deaf TV programs.

 From 1st June 2008, Channel 31 runs its Season 59 (each season every three months to re-schedule) and there is one repeat during the week after Monday's original screenings.
