'Our son has made tremendous progress thanks to his cochlear implants. At the time of surgery he knew about 10 words and 30 signs. Within a year of the implants being fully mapped he had become a chatterbox who was able to engage with his friends, family and teachers.'

'My cochlear implants help me so much in everyday life. I love the fact that after 16 years with them I am still hearing new sounds! They help at work, as well as playing netball and acting on stage.'

'Sam's cochlear implants have made such a difference to his life. He is able to attend mainstream education with in-class support, and while he still relies on lip reading, BSL/SSE and gesture, having access to sound has helped his speech improve and make himself understood' Tom
