Our Mission Statement
Open Ears is a non-denominational Christian charity (Registered charity 1181896) for people who have varying degrees of hearing impairment, mainly, but not exclusively, those who communicate orally, assisted by hearing aids or cochlear implants and lip-reading. We offer support and understanding to all who are affected by hearing loss, including family members, friends, carers or service providers. We aim to provide accessible fellowship, Bible teaching, prayer support and pastoral care. Our website provides helpful information and signposting to other organisations. We produce our own quarterly magazine, ‘Hearing Eye’.
Open Ears may give a proportion of its donated income to specified Christian charities and other organisations involved in supporting people with hearing loss.
