About us
The CHC exists as part of a multi-disciplinary team consisting
of clinical scientists, audiologists, audiology assistants and
administrative support. We assess, manage and treat children of all
ages and abilities, including children with complex additional
needs, in a timely and efficient manner. We liaise closely
with our colleagues in the Newborn Hearing Screening Programme
(NHSP), ENT doctors, the adult audiology team and the education
support service for hearing impaired children to ensure a thorough
and smooth service is provided for all children.
Our opening hours are 8:30 am to 5pm Monday to Friday. We are
closed on weekends and on bank holidays.
