What we do

The Hear and Say Centre is a family-focused centre which uses the Auditory-Verbal Therapy approach. It is unique to Queensland and recognises the parent as the natural teacher of their child and works with the family to teach their child to listen and speak.

 

The Hear and Say Centre is a registered charity, providing educational services at a minimal cost to all families within Australia who choose to attend one of our centres and an Outreach Service to those who are unable to regularly attend a Centre.

 

The Centre aims to integrate children who are deaf or hard of hearing into the hearing and speaking community and their local school at the earliest possible time.

 

Dimity Dornan, an experienced speech pathologist, founded the Centre in Brisbane, Queensland, in 1992 with six children. The Centre has now grown to provide a service for over 260 children and their families each year. As well as the Brisbane Centre, there are now regional centres in Cairns, Townsville, Darling Downs, Sunshine Coast and the Gold Coast with an Outreach service for other regional or remote areas.
