Hearing and speech communication support

If you are d/Deaf, hard of hearing or have a speech communication difficulty you can use the National Relay Service to contact the Scheme.

The National Relay Service has specially trained staff called relay officers who act as a ‘relay’ or a bridge between people who are d/Deaf hard of hearing or have speech communication difficulty, and the person or organisation they are calling.

The Access Hub(Opens in a new tab/window) website has instructions for many different relay methods including:

  • TTY (Speak and Read, Type and Listen, Type and Read)
  • Voice relay
  • National Relay Service chat
  • Video relay
  • National Relay Service captions
  • SMS Relay

Visit the Access Hub(Opens in a new tab/window) website to find a relay method that works for you.

The Australian Government acknowledges Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples throughout Australia and their continuing connection to land, water, culture and community. We pay our respects to the Elders both past and present.
