Objective 2: We provide life-changing information and advice
More than 90% of deaf children are born to hearing parents, who don’t have any previous experience of deafness.
Having access to information and advice is therefore crucial in helping families make tricky decisions about how their child will communicate, which technology they’ll use and what type of school they’ll attend.
As the leading provider of information on childhood deafness, we’ll empower families to make informed decisions and champion their child. We’ll provide this support in new and exciting digital ways, based on what families and young people need.
We’ll also offer specialist support to families who need it, uniting with them as they challenge to get the best for their child.
