Assistive technology

Assistive technology can be used in addition to your child's hearing aids or hearing implants to support them with communication. Other devices can help your child to be more independent at home, in education, and at work.

We're no longer running our Technology Test Drive or Borrow to Buy loan services, but the information in this section can help you to decide which assistive technology could benefit your child.
