New Hearing Loop Installed
Newstead has now completed the installation of a new hearing loop system, people with hearing difficulties can look forward to much better hearing quality with the delivery of clear, sharp and customized sound directly from inside their ears on switching to the “T” position. One of our members of staff, who uses hearing aids, comments that using the system makes hearing crystal clear.
Our new refined induction system transmits directly to hearing aids or if you like ”in the ear loudspeakers”.
Fire Compartmentalisation Work Goes Ahead
Major works have already been carried out here at Newstead abbey with the inception of the first phase of fire compartmentalisation. Newstead Abbey is now starting the second stage of this project - to be able to slow down fire progression throughout the building.
