The NDA’s key objective is to provide high quality information, support, awareness and communication services to young people and adults with all degrees of hearing loss in Norfolk.
To achieve this objective Norfolk Deaf Association currently provides the following services:
• Hearing Support
• Befriending
• Tinnitus Support Group
• Deaf Awareness Training
• Hard of Hearing Club
We have a small number of paid staff who work in our office in Norwich but almost the whole of our services are provided by Volunteers.
The NDA has been working with volunteers since the formation of the Norfolk Hearing Support Service (NHSS) in 1991. Many of our volunteers are hearing aid users themselves so they are in an excellent position to help new hearing aid users obtain the most benefit from their aids. Volunteers can have a number of roles:
• With the Hearing Support Service
• As a Befriender
• By supporting the Friends of the NDA with fundraising events
• Helping out in the office- please let us know if you have administrative skills
