Thank you to Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art for a wonderful guided accessibility tour.
Our Hearing Loss Support Group had an excellent morning visiting the Baltic and experiencing the tour using our assistive technology for both Oticon and Phonak hearing aids. The technology enabled participants to hear the guide more clearly and take part in the tour in a more inclusive and accessible way.
We were also able to demonstrate how the microphones can be used by guides and provide valuable feedback to the Baltic Centre about accessibility for visitors with hearing loss.
It was a fantastic morning out, enjoyed by everyone, and a great opportunity to show how the right technology and simple adjustments can make cultural experiences more accessible and inclusive. We look forward to visiting again next year.
