  8. Qualitative comments • Need for clear reference for distance • Not only physical reasons for having difficulty with walking and climbing stairs • The problem is, we did not realize that when we answered on that stairs question, it only struck me a couple of minutes later and I did think about it. There are numerous reasons [for having difficulty walking or climbing stairs]. (Non-disabled youth) • Okay, the other thing here with no. 14 [difficulty walking and climbing stairs], if you think about walking and climbing steps… for us at night… if we put’ yes’ there then you might think that we are physically disabled - but we are not. But at night time, if it’s in the dark and because we are deaf, we don’t have… we find ourselves imbalanced. No, not imbalance. We have a poor sense of balance. (Deaf group)

  9. Recommendation • Add clear reference to distance • For example: Do you / does [name] have difficulty Walking a kilometre or climbing a flight of steps?
