National Lipreading Awareness Week 2016
Free 1-hour tasters in lipreading skills Sept 12 – 16
- Are you one of the 1 in 6 people in the UK with a hearing loss?
- Do you struggle to hear in noisy situations?
- Have you thought about joining a lipreading class?
Free one-hour tasters are being offered in Buckinghamshire during Lipreading Awareness Week (September 12-16) by tutors Judy Perry and Molly Berry from the Association of Teachers of Lipreading to Adults.
Lipreading can be a good support in conjunction with hearing aids and learning to lipread is a skill which can improve how much you understand when people speak to you. Classes are small and friendly and also provide information on coping strategies and assistive equipment.
