Please install the Flash Plugin Take action with us now! We’re running a number of campaigns which help raise awareness and improve the lives of people who are deaf or have a hearing loss.  

We’ve been working closely with the Welsh Assembly and partner organisations to improve the lives of people with hearing loss in Wales.

Our current campaigns include:

Hearing matters 

We’re calling on the Welsh Assembly Government to work with us to introduce a national screening programme to identify hearing loss amongst the older population.

Lipreading

We are calling on the Welsh Assembly Government to ensure better access to lipreading classes across Wales, to work with us on a National Strategy for Lipreading in Wales, to identify demand, availability and funding of lipreading classes.

Protecting your hearing

Protecting your hearing aims to raise awareness of how listening to loud music over long periods of time can damage hearing. 

Loop provision

We’re calling on our partners in the Welsh Assembly Government to ensure that all service providers have fully functioning, maintained and visible hearing loops on their premises.

Increasing Audiology support

We’re working to ensure that all audiology referrals meet the national waiting time target, including reassessments and refittings, which aren't currently subject to the national waiting time target.

Access to services

Let’s work together to improve access to services. A recent study in Wales showed that four fifths of people that took part believe their hearing loss or deafness made it harder for them to use services.
