Lola's Loud Shirt Day fundraising appeal
Foundation course in Auditory Verbal therapy - Autumn 2022 start (Online)
Orson & family 6825 challenge

Orson, was born with moderate-severe high frequency sensorineural hearing loss in both ears. AVUK has been life-changing for our family and we are eternally gratefully. Orson started auditory verbal therapy aged 2 and graduated from the course at 4.5 years old, tracking a year ahead of his age on the Preschool Language Scales assessment. For a young boy who cannot hear the sound of a bike bell, birds singing and the doorbell ringing without his hearing aids it was an incredible achievement.
Lola's Story

AVUK have provided us with the skills to communicate effectively with our daughter and the motivation to keep going. They encouraged us to believe that all our hopes and dreams for Lola were possible and supported us with any concerns we had.
