During your experience it will be a good idea to write down any barriers that you face, communications difficulties you have or situations where you have wanted to remove the ear plugs to make things easier.

You can also write down examples of positive experiences; perhaps thinking of new ways to communicate effectivly to get your message across. 

When being deaf for a day it is also worth remembering that as a hearing person you will be able to remove the ear plugs and reagain your hearing; an opportunity that thousands of people across the UK do not have.

It is also essential to remember to inform your family and freinds before trying this so that you have someone to support you.  Losing a sense, even for a day, will have a big impact and your safety should be considered at all times.
