Hard of Hearing?
JOIN A LIPREADING CLASS and Let your eyes help your ears!
Lipreading is the skill of recognising visual clues and being able to interpret them so that they can help to supplement what is heard. Like any worthwhile skill, the skill of lipreading may take time to learn, though some people do have a natural aptitude. At the classes, everyone understands the experience of hearing loss and will offer support and friendship to one another.
CLASSES ARE FREE! If you are interested in joining the weekly class on Tuesday afternoons at Wells Hall Old School, Great Cornard. For further information please contact Jill Cox on 01473 824649.
