Sensory impairment

Plain English definition

From:

Think Local Act Personal (TLAP) Jargon Buster

Think Local Act Personal

When one of your senses - sight, hearing, smell, touch, taste - does not work properly. It does not necessarily mean a total loss of one or more of your senses. You may be born with a sensory impairment, or develop it later in life.
