Read our Listen! Summer 2026 newsletter

Our Summer 2026 issue of our “Listen!” Newsletter is a special edition to mark The Elizabeth Foundation’s 45th anniversary. Alongside information, updates, and lots of inspiration, it includes messages from our co-founder David Metherell, MBE and his daughter Elizabeth. 

Celebrating 45 years of progress

As we celebrate the 45th anniversary of The Elizabeth Foundation, we are delighted to share this special newsletter with you. Reaching this milestone is only possible because of your kindness, generosity, and ongoing support.

Whether you have been part of our journey for many years or have joined us more recently, thank you for believing in our mission of supporting deaf children and their families, and helping us make a lasting difference in the lives of so many people. This milestone is an opportunity to reflect on all that we have achieved together while looking ahead with optimism to the future.

Throughout this edition of Listen! we take the opportunity to compare our earliest achievements with how we have progressed to become the leading provider of specialist preschool education services for deaf children in the UK. We are also delighted to share messages from our co-founder David Metherell, MBE and his daughter Elizabeth.

You will also notice that our Listen! newsletter has a fresh new look. It reflects the design of our new website, giving us a welcoming and modern identity that we hope will make it even easier to share our story and keep you connected with our work.

Thank you for being an important part of The Elizabeth Foundation’s journey. We hope you enjoy reading this special 45th anniversary edition and learning more about the impact your support makes possible.

As we enter this exciting new chapter – with a refreshed brand and a new online presence – we look forward to continuing this journey together and building on the legacy of the past 45 years.
