New ‘Understanding Hearing Loss’ MESHGuide - available in 104 languages, improving access for all families.

The BATOD Foundation is delighted to announce the launch of their latest MESHGuide: Understanding Hearing Loss.

The guide has been created as a direct response to the COVID19 pandemic. Information about hearing loss has been collated to support Teachers of the Deaf in their delivery of information, support and guidance to families, nurseries and schools, new to hearing loss.

With colour photographs and links to videos throughout, the guide can be used to provide training remotely, via screen sharing or talking through in a telephone conversation.

Information is provided in 5 sections:

  • Nature of hearing loss
  • Degree of hearing loss  (including impact for speech access)
  • Amplification
  • Ways to help, including ‘Top Tips’
  • Links to DLA information, NDCS booklets and resources
