Our Lip Reading Classes are always popular and we have some new dates to be aware of. The class is, as always, open to new members and meets Monday nights, 5:30pm – 7:30pm. The is an additonal peer supportgroup which meets regularly on Wednesdays too!
Lip Reading Classes are great for people who have lost their hearing for some reason. It might be age or illness but lip reading can boost confidence and help people to be more independent.
Common issues for people with hearing loss include; feeling isolated, guessing what people are saying, feeling silly or worried they will say the wrong thing having not been able to hear a question properly and struggling in crowds or noisy places like pubs or restaurants. All of these can stop people going out and socialising. Even people with hearing aids can benefit from Lip Reading Classes as they can still struggle with things like background music or high levels of noise from construction etc.
