Sense Children's Specialist Service

Overview

Support for children with multi-sensory impairments

We offer free specialist advice and support for young people under the age of 25 who are deafblind or multi-sensory impaired.

Our specialist support is for children and young people with an impairment in both their hearing and vision.

Some people call this multi-sensory impairment or dual sensory impairment, and some call it deafblindness.

We also offer support for those with a vision or hearing impairment alongside another disability, like autism or cerebral palsy.

To find out more about the support we can offer you and your child, get in touch.
