St Saviour's Centre for the Deaf

St Saviour's Centre for the Deaf is an Anglican church and social centre for deaf people in Acton, London, England. It was the first and only purpose-built church for deaf people. St Saviour's is the central location for the London Diocesan Chaplaincy among Deaf and Deafblind people. The church and social centre are due to close at the end of September 2014 following a loss of funding, and insufficient financial reserves to maintain the premises.〔 The final church service was held on Wednesday 24 September 2014, at which the Bishop of Willesden officiated.
==History==
The congregation was first established at a site in Oxford Street, where the original building was constructed from 1870 to 1874. The architect was Arthur Blomfield. The Duke of Westminster had provided the site on a lease for sixty years. The foundation stone was laid by Edward, Prince of Wales and Princess Alexandra, who had a hearing impairment.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://archiseek.com/2011/1875-st-saviours-church-for-the-deaf-dumb-oxford-street-london/ )
The first service there was held in 1873. The building became a great symbol for deaf people of their rights to play a full part in church and society.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://royaldeaf.org.uk/About_RAD/HISTORY_PART_1/87 )
The church moved to a new site in Acton in 1925, when the Oxford Street location was required for redevelopment into the present Selfridge's.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://londondeafchurch.wordpress.com/useful-info/st-saviours-history/ )〕 The congregation has worshipped in the church continuously for 90 years. The building includes many features specially designed for the deaf, which include dual pulpits (one for the speaker and one for a sign language translator), clear lines of sight (with no pillars or visual obstructions), and a sloping floor to ensure that even those near the back can clearly see the signers.
