Built in the grounds of Bradford Royal Infirmary, the Listening for Life Centre was funded by The Ear Trust – a charitable organisation founded by one of the world’s leading Cochlear Implant pioneers, Chris Raine.

The Centre, now part of a network of 18 centres worldwide, is the UK hub for collaboration and research in cochlear implantation. The Centre is also active in raising public awareness of deafness, and educating professionals in the field of Audiology.

Within this ‘Centre for Excellence’, Allaway Acoustics have provided a suite of five Audiology Test Rooms which accommodates both Adult and Paediatric Audiology Testing and uses the latest equipment to improve the diagnosis, rehabilitation and education of its implant patients; including a facility dedicated to the newly developed assessment technology ‘Crescent of Sound’.

BBC Media City

The partial relocation of the BBC’s London staff and facilities to the exciting new development at Media City, Salford Quays was a major logistical undertaking. This was matched by the design and construction challenges posed by sheer scale and quality of the new development, not least of which were the noise control considerations for the centrepiece 250,000 sq ft studio block.

Following in-house development and independent testing at the local University’s facilities, Allaway won a major contract with contractor Rotary Northwest to supply and install £1.8m-worth of acoustic ducting. This high-specification system had to achieve extremely demanding sound transmission and absorption characteristics, necessary to deliver conditioned air to the studios at the requisite low noise levels. The contract value is a reflection of the size and complexity of the systems, which include all transitions, sets, and branches, as well as the attenuation and control dampers.
