Noise Cancelling Headphones

Hi there,

My son has Aspergers and learning difficulties.  He is extremely noise sensitive and struggles at school.  I am trying to research the best noise cancelling headphones/ear defenders.  I have bought him some ear defenders on Amazon which he has tried out today but they didnt help.

Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

    My adult son is autistic, he has noise cancelling headphones and listens to either music or calming sounds, he has an app called calm which has lots of calming sounds. He also just wears them without music to reduce noise when he’s at college so he can hear his teacher and lsa but it limits loud noises etc as he has sound sensory issues with most loud noises such as drilling, beeping horns etc. The headphones cost around £50 but have made a bassive difference for him. I got wireless ones as he tends to fall asleep listening to the calm app and I didn’t want him wrapping the wire all around him. Hope this helps x
