Deaf lipreaders can misunderstand shop assistants. In this picture a lady learns in her receipt that the handbag in the sale was actually £50.00 & not £15.00.

Words such as ‘fifty’ & ‘fifteen’ have similar lip shapes. These are examples of #homophenes

A very true observation at the start of: #deafAwarenessWeek #SpokenWordsMadeVisible #Lipspeakers4Lipreaders #LipspeakingProfessionals #LipreadingClasses #Lipreading

[Tim Reedy @elitelipreader]

“The most important things are not said but seen!” (Author unknown). Today is the start of Lipreading Awareness Week! #LipreadingAwarenessWeek #communication #accessibility

[Association Of Lipspeakers - Est. 1992 @ALSLips]

Our hardworking lipspeakers and lipreaders will be delighted with this news. Please do share this information with others. #lipspeakers #lipreaders #SpokenWordsMadeVisible #

[Access to Work Collective @AccessToWorkCol]

In response to the Access to Work Crisis, the National Audit Office has announced it will be carrying out an investigation into Access to Work.

This is an important moment for everyone who relies on or supports Access to Work. We will follow developments closely + share updates.

[RNID @RNID]

On 7 September 2025 there will be another national emergency alert test to phones across the UK. 📲

To spread awareness, the Government have produced a video in BSL to share with the deaf community.

We’ve put some information together here: https://t.co/EzRUE7NRAa

#Lipreading Myth Buster 4:
Some worry they are too old to start lipreading, but age is no barrier. Many people with #hearingloss begin classes later in life & find that this skill not only helps their comprehension but also boosts their confidence, social life, & wellbeing.

[Association Of Lipspeakers - Est. 1992 @ALSLips]

Although NUBSLI are not representatives for lipspeakers. It's still worth lipspeakers checking out the #NUBSLI calculator. Lipspeaking fees continue to spiral in the wrong direction, as agents battle to secure large contracts for our work #KnowYourWorth

[NUBSLI @NUBSLI]

We have a calculator which helps you work out how much income you will lose over the course of a year from accepting less money for just one job a week/month. Helping you make informed choices. #NUBSLIWins #StrongerTogether https://t.co/T6lgsUyVvn

Lipreading Myth Buster 1:
Some people believe #lipreading is only for those who are completely #deaf, but that’s not the case. Lipreading can be a valuable skill for anyone experiencing any level of #hearingloss - or even if you just struggle to hear in noisy environments

[InnoCaption @InnoCaption]

🔁 Listening takes energy—especially when you're deaf or hard of hearing. Decoding speech, lipreading, and straining to follow conversations can lead to real mental exhaustion. It's called listening fatigue! Have you experienced any of these symptoms?
