It’s Deaf Awareness Week (May 14-20) and national charity Action on Hearing Loss is marking the occasion with a nod to the life-changing technology that is out there to assist people with hearing loss or deafness.

According to the charity, more than 900,000 people in the UK are severely deaf; 24,000 use sign language as their main language; and due to our ageing population by 2035 it is estimated that 15.6 million people will have some form of hearing loss. But this does not mean you cannot live life to the fullest.

Here’s a round-up of the charity’s bestselling products for every situation – at home, work, or out socialising.
