🌍 Lipreading Awareness Week 🌍
At Help in Hearing, we understand that hearing loss is different for everyone. For many, lipreading is a vital skill that helps bridge the communication gap.
Lipreading isn’t about guessing words — it’s about combining visual cues, context, and concentration to make conversations flow more naturally.
Here are a few simple ways you can support someone who relies on lipreading:
👉 Make sure your face is visible and well lit
👉 Speak clearly at a natural pace (no need to shout or exaggerate)
👉 Reduce background noise where possible
👉 Be patient — good communication is teamwork
This week, we celebrate everyone who uses lipreading and the difference it makes in so many lives. At Help in Hearing, we believe that hearing well isn’t just about sound — it’s about relationships, confidence, and enjoying life to the fullest.
