Deaf Direct

Deaf Direct have received a generous donation of three Komelon 5m tape measures from Advent Tools in Coleshill, Warwickshire.
Barry Ross, equipment service officer, said that these will be extremely useful when measuring room sizes for induction loop systems that we install, as well as for general use in our main offices in Worcester. We install quality induction loop systems in community centres, village halls, churches, hotels and conference rooms and it is important that ...we use quality tools to do this. As a charity for the deaf and hard of hearing, we are well aware of the difficulties that can be experienced in group settings when you can’t hear the speaker or conversations properly. The induction loop systems that we install ensure that all those present can fully participate in the meetings. We are very grateful to Advent Tools for their support.
