AN exhibition will be held in Hartlepool to help people who are hearing or visually impaired.
There will be about 40 stands, including charities and manufacturers of devices that help people with sensory loss.
The exhibition coincides with the launch of a free information pack and tape to assist people with visual and hearing impairments.
It has been organised by Hartlepool Borough Council's social services department, Hartlepool Blind Welfare Association and Hartlepool Deaf Centre.
The exhibition will be held at The Grand Hotel, in Swainson Street, on Thursday, from 10am to 4pm.
