Testimonials

I just wanted to say a massive thank you. Alex from the Penrith based office has been absolutely outstanding and she is a credit to your service. As a young woman with a brain tumour that caused single sided deafness, Alex’s kindness and understanding has been exceptional. She has gone above and beyond to help me. The doorbell, TV unit and alarm clock have also been paramount in my recovery and helping me to function and feel a bit more normal.” Becky, service user.

Thank you so much Vanessa for coming to see me. I felt very refreshed and uplifted after your visit. The replacement hearing loops have arrived and actually seem better than the old ones were before they broke.” Anita, service user.

Want to volunteer with us?

Our volunteers are invaluable and make a huge difference to our work. Whatever your skills, experience and interests, we probably have a volunteering opportunity that will suit you.
