Paediatric Audiology Interest Group (PAIG)
Welcome to the Paediatric Audiology Interest Group (PAIG) webpage
The group was established in
2000 due to great interest in paediatric audiology amongst the BSA
membership. Many of you will have already filled in a form to join and
if the letter P appears on your BSA mailing label we have your details,
but please be sure to keep us up to date with any changes to your
contact details.
Any BSA member working in paediatric audiology may join the group.
If you are working with children PAIG needs you!
