With your help, more people like Ellis can be reconnected with their families.

For the first time in nearly 20 years I could hear my family clearly.

Even though we weren’t together, I could speak to all five generations – including my three year old great-great-granddaughter!

It felt so wonderful to have them back in my life.”

Ellis, 90, living with hearing loss.

When families were forced apart during the pandemic, Ellis’ hearing loss made him feel even more isolated and alone. His grandaughter, Nicola, reached out to RNID for support.

Within weeks, we sent Ellis a simple listening device, which helped him reconnect with his family.
