Thank you for all the information and chat yesterday, not only was it helpful on a practical level but was good for me to realise a few things on a personal level.

With regards recommended assistive hearing equipment “… use the equipment both in everyday life and at Uni, we have now been back for 3 weeks and they’ve absolutely changed my life for the better. So thank you dearly for recommending these, i would not be without them!! It is a truly wonderful experience to be able to hear in noise and over distance.

LLB Law Student – University of Warwick
I have received my DSA2 letter today and so I want to thank you immensely for all that you have done towards that, which is hugely appreciated. I have had a very positive and friendly experience all the way from my initial consultation to subsequently requesting additional support a few years later. As well as the fact that, my request for DSA support was promptly dealt with in a professional and expedient manner.
