About us
We’re here for the 18 million people in the UK who are deaf, have hearing loss or tinnitus.
With our communities, we’ll change society to make it more inclusive for everyone, help people hear better now and fund world-class research.
Our communities are huge: 1 in 3 adults in the UK are deaf, have hearing loss or tinnitus.
If our work doesn’t directly impact you, it will almost certainly be making a difference for someone you know and love.
We work with our communities and partners across health, employment, research, government and more to change life for the better.
