Over 100,000 people in the Glasgow area have some degree of deafness or hearing loss. People with impaired hearing may have difficulty in following speech and identifying sounds even with hearing aids and listening devices.
Hard of hearing people often have difficulty following conversations, hearing telephones, TV and audio. They may lose confidence and feel anxious about the future.
Learn to lipread and interpret visual clues, learn more about deafness, services and equipment. Learn to cope with deafness and improve communication. Meet new people and learn new skills and have fun too!
