The important research being carried out by Dr Marquardt is made possible due to the kindness of people like you leaving a gift in your Will to RNID.

Stephen’s story

After struggling with tinnitus and hearing loss since 1975, Stephen became profoundly deaf in 2001 and received a cochlear implant in 2006. Stephen has left RNID a gift in his Will as he wants to support research into future hearing technology, ensuring that future generations can experience the soundtrack to life.
