Supporting Parents New to Hearing Loss Online Events
Have you recently found out your baby, toddler or child has hearing loss? Join our free online events to find out what support is available for you and your child. They’re a brilliant chance to meet other parents and carers of deaf children and become part of a community.
These sessions are open to all parents and carers of children, aged 0 to 12, who have found out in the past 18 months that their child has any level or type of hearing loss.
Whether you have some or no experience of deafness, our friendly experts are here to support you and your child.
