Day-to-day

At Chime we offer services that can help you to discover technology solutions that could make your day-to-day life easier. From hearing aids to educational aids and everyday assistive technology, we’ve got a wide range of products designed for you. 

At Chime we work hard to ensure that your needs are at the forefront of everything we do. We are not partnered with any technology company so that means that we will always help you to choose technology that suits you and your budget.

Chime technology services are run as social enterprises, which means that any proceeds from the sale of technology is put towards other key Chime services. These include services such as our Newly Diagnosed Weekends, and our social work team who support adults and children who are struggling, as well as children and family events and much, much more.
