Improving Ear Health in the Pilbara

Telethon Speech & Hearing is pleased to reflect on our recent success in working with the community to address otitis media in Aboriginal children in rural areas of WA.

From 51% of children under 7 years old in 2011 down to 33% in 2016 we are making headway thanks to working with local elders.

TSH would like to acknowledge and thank the City of Karratha for the provision of funding support for 2017/18 for our premises in Karratha.

Telethon Speech & Hearing is committed to upholding the rights and safety of all children and young people. This includes being a child safe organisation where children, young people, families, and community members can feel that their culture, abilities and identities are respected. Telethon Speech & Hearing acknowledges the Traditional Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Custodians of the land on which we work, live and build stronger communities for children and families to thrive. We recognise their continued custodianship and connection to land, waters and community and pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging. We extend this respect to all First Nations people present today and welcome all Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal families to our centre and school.
