Empowering Hearing

Little Ears Matter are committed to remove barriers to hearing for ALL children and young people regardless of their diagnosis. We support young learners with any type of hearing loss or a hearing difficulty even when it is only suspected and not formally diagnosed. 

Our specialist services, including hearing screening, earwax removal and educational packages of support, are delivered to ensure that every child with a hearing difficulty can thrive.

Our Mission

At Little Ears Matter, we understand the unique challenges that come with hearing difficulties, and we’re here to make a difference. 

Our mission is to bridge the gap in services for children and young people, who despite facing these challenges, do not meet criteria for support from their local Teachers of the Deaf service. We are committed to ensuring that everyone with a hearing difficulty receives the specialist support they need without delay. 

With our expert guidance, every learner can unlock their full hearing potential and thrive on their journey. Join us in empowering your child to succeed!

Assistive Listening Devices (Radio Aids)
Does your child/learner require an assistive listening device (ALD) to maximise their hearing potential and improve access to learning? Or perhaps you already have an assistive listening device but you feel unsure if it is needed or if working optimally?
We offer advice, technology checks, practical training for parents and staff, loan and fitting of equipment to meet your child's/ learner's needs.

We also support college students in Birmingham and neighbouring local authorities!

Hearing Screening
Are you worried about a child's hearing? Do you think that a child is sometimes ignoring you or 'choosing' when to listen? Think again! This child may have an undiagnosed hearing loss, which may impact on their understanding, communication, behaviour, access to learning and overall well-being.

We deliver hearing health checks and hearing screening tests in the family homes and schools to help determine whether a child has a hearing loss.
