Aston University researchers have created a new video series to support parents of young children with mild or unilateral hearing loss. The videos, produced with the National Deaf Children's Society, aim to address common uncertainties faced by these families. The series was developed after interviews with 17 parents revealed challenges in managing their children's hearing conditions. Parents often felt uncertain about available resources and professional advice, especially as circumstances changed. The videos feature parents sharing their experiences, providing guidance to others in similar situations. The researchers also recommend that professionals receive training to better support families dealing with mild or unilateral deafness.
