Student Rebecca French has been awarded a €6,000 scholarship from the Cochlear UK Graeme Clark Scholarship Award, which will help to support her through university. Rebecca, 19, from Durham, is profoundly deaf, but was given the sensation of hearing from a cochlear implant at the age of 3 ½. The scholarship is a unique award open to Cochlear Nucleus implant recipients nationwide, which is awarded on the basis of academic achievement, as well as Cochlear’s ideals of leadership and humanity.
