The Ear Trust : What We Need

As we have continued to grow our current accommodation is becoming cramped. The way forward is to build a new unit - Listening For Life Centre - that will house the assessment programme for the neonates, children and adults referred to us. It will also enable us to hold workshops and continue with our research.
The building is underway Cost of the building is approximatley £2.5 - 2.6 million.

Equiping the center will be a key issue. Some of the equipment we need includes:
  • Five Sound proof rooms - 3 Paediatric and 2 Adult
  • Creation of a teaching /meeting facility
  • screening otoacoustic emissions
  • automated brain stem audiology screening tympanometer
  • sound level meters
  • diagnostic otoacoustic auditory emissions
  • visual re-enforced audiology tests
  • Meg SS3 free field warbler
  • diagnostic tympanometer
  • Phoenix Speech tests
  • aurical hearing aid test box
  • aAditbase user licence and software
  • POCIA MRC hearing aid hardware
  • computers, adderlink boxes and printers
  • biologic NAV Pro steady state evoked potential
  • toys

And the cost? We estimate £300,000.
