The

Sensory Support Service

In February 2008 one of our colleagues welcomed Twix into her home.

This young dog is in the final phase of her training by ‘Hearing Dogs For Deaf People’.

Twix understands that when she is wearing the coat she is working. Her special training allows her to alert her owner to sounds hearing people take for granted, so providing greater independence, confidence and security.  

As a valuable member of our team Twix can be found supporting our colleague in schools and colleges throughout the Four Authorities.
