Annual Review

This year, we have continued to support groundbreaking science to develop better technologies for deaf people, understand why we lose our hearing and find lasting solutions.

Cover of 2008 Annual Review

Investment in hearing research lags far behind that into other disabilities. According to a recent independent report on UK medical research, the country is spending less than £2 per year on hearing research for every person affected.

So it is absolutely vital that Deafness Research UK not only increases the funding available for research but that we use the funds we have to maximum effect.

That means supporting the very highest quality medical and scientific research but, more than that, we must also make sure that all our research meets the needs of those affected and take action to ensure that research results reach the front line health professionals.
