We have teamed up with Friends of FAID Ireland. Friends of FAID Ireland is a charity that supports the Father Andeweg school of the deaf in Beiruit, Lebanon. They are looking for old BTE (behind the ear) hearing aids, with a telecoil. All donations can be sent to us by post or just drop them into one of our offices and we will arrange delivery to Friends of FAID Ireland or you can contact their them directly by clicking onto their website.
