The Campaign for Better Hearing

We encourage you to test your ears at 55 years

The Campaign for Better Hearing is a global initiative, but united by a single cause: to help the world hear better. Hearing loss can lead to isolation, loneliness and even depression. That’s why, through our Give Back Programme, for every 1,000 hearing tests we do, we award a pair of state-of-the-art hearing aids to someone who might not be able to afford them otherwise.

The Campaign for Better Hearing is fighting this by:

1. Raising awareness of the importance of looking after your hearing.
 
2. Highlighting the impact that hearing loss can have on your health.
 
3. Encouraging everyone over the age of 55 to have a hearing test.

The Give Back programme

Hidden Hearing is supporting this campaign, through the Give Back Programme. We are changing lives by providing a free, top-of-the-range pair of private hearing aids to people in the UK who may not be able to afford them.

It’s simple. For every 1,000 tests we do, we give back a free pair of hearing aids. The test doesn’t need to be for you either, just nominate a friend or family member who you think will benefit from having their hearing checked.

Maybe a loved one or someone you know struggles to keep up with conversations, avoids talking on the phone, seems distant in noisy environments or has the TV too loud.

You can book a test for you or them, and have the opportunity to be nominated for the Give Back Programme which changes lives for the better. Please ask your local Hidden Hearing team if you’d like to be nominated for the programme.
