Support for people with hearing loss in Milton Keynes
We can help with information, advice and guidance including BSL Support with English translation, specialist assessment of your hearing loss needs, support with your hearing aids and advice on specialist equipment.
BSL Services
If you communicate using BSL, we can support you by making the initial contact with service providers who may not know about your communication needs.
How we can help you:
- Advice, information and signposting to other services
- Telephone support for house bills, benefits etc
- Translate English into BSL
- Advise local GPs and hospitals to get you the right Communication support.
We also give advice on information and training in the use of services such as Sign Video, Sign Health and NGT Lite text relay, which may help you to become more independent.
For more information or to make an appointment, please contact us.
We have different ways for you to get in contact with us including Skype, Facebook Messenger and FaceTime.
