We started the meeting by welcoming our existing and new members to the group. New members Deborah, David, John and Aida introduced themselves. Kate started with giving some updates since the last meeting which included a new publication and a preprint about the PPIE evaluation. The first activity was to discuss the question in groups: Is there a need to get a picture of severity of hearing loss in South of England? How big is the problem? After a lively discussion, we all shared our ideas to the whole group. Callum then gave a short presentation about this project called AudiLOG which aims to create a comprehensive research database at AIS. To end the meeting, Kate highlighted upcoming opportunities to get involved with including the annual Science and Engineering Festival (Saturday 16th March).
