Ageing and Deafness Conference

Our conference on ‘Ageing and Deafness’ held in London on 16th October was a great success with speakers.

Our conference on ‘Adult Hearing Loss- time for a new approach’ in Westminster yesterday (15th October) gathered leaders from audiology, from industry, from the Third Sector and politicians, all joined in a passion to move forward with raising awareness of the impact of hearing loss, the exciting technologies we have available today, and pushing for an adult hearing screening programme.

The conference was followed by the launch of our report- Adult Cochlear Implantation: evidence and experience, pushing for greater access to cochlear implantation for adults. Stephen Lloyd, MP, and Lilian Greenwood, MP, both shared the passion to support the initiative.
