All organisations in England that provide NHS or adult social care must now follow the Accessible Information Standard by law. 

This means that if you’re deaf or have hearing loss, you must get the right support to communicate well, and receive information that you can understand, when you need NHS care or publicly funded adult social care.

To help you explain to your GP what support you need, there is a template letter produced by Action on Hearing Loss.

We want to hear from you

1.Ideas for future forum activity, topics for forum meetings and ideas how we can generate an income to cover costs. Your input can help shape the future of the forum -let us know what you think.

2. Any company which deserves a thank you for the way it works with the hearing impaired

We were set up to represent the hearing impaired community within Shropshire and Telford and Wrekin, as well as to offer information and advice to all who have an interest in supporting that community.

Our web site is still  developing  -please let us know if there are any particular topics you would like us to include.
