Action for Deafness will be donating over 600 hearing aids to a variety of projects across the world including a centre in Cambodia and Deaf schools in Uganda and Sri Lanka. The hearing aids that are being donated are ones which have been returned by patients who have passed away or have been donated by patients who have been supplied with new hearing aids by Action for Deafness. AFD audiologists have programmed the aids in their spare time and Volunteer Co-ordinator, Chris Wingrove, will be travelling out to each project to hand the hearing aids over to the organisations and to see how Action for Deafness can help each project in the future. Chris will set out on his journey in early September.
Chris hopes to raise funds to enable him to take supplies of batteries and tubing to the projects he will be working with. If you would like to donate to the project please go to www.justgiving.com/chris-wingrove
