It will be a 5 week course starting on 1st October at 2pm, please contact Jan Marshall on 01271 373236 for more details. This is not just about learning the skills to lipread, it’s also about meeting and sharing experiences in an environment where everybody understands how your hearing loss affects your everyday life.
