Title
Destiny of a Child supports cochlear implantation for profoundly deaf children
Description
Destiny of a Child supports other charities that hold the same objectives for profoundly deaf children, and who have direct links with hospitals. We have selected charities in the UK and in France which use our funding with consideration and care.
The Ear Foundation introduced the technology of paediatric cochlear implantation to the UK. Having established this innovative technology, The Ear Foundation now provides essential family information and support facilities, rehabilitation services and professional training which is needed to ensure a life-time's care for these deaf children. The Ear Foundation is a member of British Cochlear Implant Group and EURO-CIU.
C.I.C.S. (Cochlear Implanted Children's Support Group) in London was established in 1992 by the parents of 2 of the first children to receive cochlear implants. It provides support for parents by parents during and after a child's cochlear implant and links families with similar histories.
