Deaflink Hard of Hearing Project Update

We will announce dates for the next group meetings after the trial face to face sessions run.

For the time being we will be announcing meetings on a monthly basis rather than a full programme.

Here’s a quick reminder about our support groups and their aims

As from 1st July 2021 SHHH Group will be known as Hearing Loss Support Group (you will be able to see the name change popping up from today)

We wanted to avoid confusion with another group called SHHH Group in Newcastle as well as to make it easier to understand who the group was intended for.

If you use a mobile phone that is Android 10 or above it is possible to set it up so you can see live captions on your phone calls,

Tinnitus Week 2021

If you would like to share your experiences of living with tinnitus through our website or social media as part of this please let me know. The aim is to raise awareness and improve understanding of the condition to improve reaction from both medical professionals and the general public to people who have tinnitus.

If you are unsure about what you can and can't do according to the new lockdown restrictions the best place to check is the GOV.UK website.
