  • All Wales/National
  • Annual

This is the nineteenth annual statistical report published by Newborn Hearing Screening Wales (NBHSW). This report covers data for babies born between 1 April 2022 and 31 March 2023. One or two babies in every 1,000 are born with a hearing loss that may affect their speech and language development. NBHSW was launched in 2003 and aims to identify these babies as early as possible, as evidence shows that introducing an early support programme before six months of age leads to better outcomes for speech and language development.
