RNID boss needn't be deaf, says Low
By John Plummer, Third Sector, 25 April 2007
The departing chief executive of the RNID has said that his successor need not be hard of hearing.
John Low, who is to become chief executive at sector support organisation the Charities Aid Foundation, said: "The important thing is to hire someone of high calibre. It would be great to get a deaf person with the necessary experience and skills. But the pool we are recruiting from is very small."
There was criticism from deaf people when Low, who is not hard of hearing, succeeded James Strachan, who is deaf, as chief executive of the RNID in 1999.
Low said most of those on the charity's board were deaf and could be trusted to serve the interests of the institute's beneficiaries.
Anne Pridmore, chair of the UK Disabled People's Council, said she would prefer the institute to hire a deaf leader but recognised that it would be difficult because there were so few senior figures with disabilities in the voluntary sector.
