The Society carries out survey and research on services or issues related to hearing impaired persons, and to make recommendations based on research results. We aim to raise public awareness on the needs of hearing impaired persons.

The Society frequently sends representatives to attend the consultation sessions of different governmental departments and public institutions to present our views and recommendations in order to ensure the hearing impaired receive equal treatment in society. Meetings attended in the past include: “Public Consultation on Hong Kong Rehabilitation Programme Plan”, Disability Allowance Review Meeting, Consultation Forum on the “Elderly Services Programme Plan”, Public Consultation on “Sport for People with Disabilities in Hong Kong” and Consultation Forum on the Barrier-free Facilities of the West Kowloon Cultural District (WKCD) etc.
