    Hi @clairec59 and a warm welcome to our community, it's fab to meet you!

    You'll have to excuse my lack of knowledge, but I searched for 'dual sensory loss' as I wasn't familiar with it.  This NHS webpage says it is the combination of sight and hearing loss, is that right?  How do you find living with that?  I hope you have sufficient support.  

    If you have any particular questions you'd like to ask our community, then please fire away so we can help.  If not, be sure to make yourself at home - either by browsing our recent discussions or visiting our virtual coffee lounge, a cosy little spot where our members have a friendly natter.

    I hope Wednesday is treating you well.  Speak soon :)
