Vision

We want a world in which deaf children are able to realise their full potential within their communities and we believe this is best achieved through support to learn to listen and, thereby, acquire spoken language.

We believe that the vast majority of deaf children can learn to listen and talk

We believe that all parents of deaf children should be given this option

Mission

Based on improving knowledge of the effectiveness of natural auralism, we aim to make a positive difference in the lives of deaf children and their families through sharing information, influencing training, providing support and campaigning for change.

DELTA offers:

  • Literature and research on the Natural Aural Approach.
  • Information days and meetings across the country, including our annual Summer Schools to guide the whole family in their skills and techniques. Please refer to CURRENT EVENTS.
  • Training courses for practitioners.
  • Advice to Local Authorities and other Government bodies.
  • Information to doctors and other health professionals.
  • Fundraising events throughout the year.
