Laura James

Audiologist

Laura is a registered Hearing Aid Dispenser with the Health and Care Professions Council and is a proud member of the British Society of Hearing Aid Audiologists. Holding a BSc in Biomedical Science and a FdSc in Hearing Aid Audiology, Laura has dedicated her career to the field of audiology.

Her journey in the hearing world is deeply rooted in personal experiences of hearing loss during childhood. Wearing hearing aids since the age of 16, Laura holds a profound understanding of the significance of better hearing, making it a cause close to her heart. Laura has accumulated a wealth of experience, initially working as an Audiologist with both a national chain and independent practices. In recent years, she has transitioned to the manufacturing and training side of audiology.

Laura is proud to be part of The Hearing Care Partnership, a renowned organisation with a commitment to being world leaders in the field of audiology. The focus on providing access to testing that sets them apart reflects the values that resonate with Laura. Commencing her journey with THCP has been a privilege, and she eagerly anticipates a long and fulfilling collaboration with the dedicated team.

Beyond her professional pursuits, Laura treasures her family, considering them her world outside of audiology. She takes joy in spending quality time with her three children and, alongside them, engages in regular activities such as swimming and walking their two dogs. Before embracing motherhood, Laura was an avid skydiver for a decade, competing in exhilarating competitions around the globe.
