About Hearing Loss
Hearing loss isn't just about volume - it's about clarity, connection, and confidence. It can be gradual or sudden, mild or severe, and it looks different for everyone. But the good news it: you're not alone, and help is available.
Signs & Symptoms
You may notice:
Asking people to repeat themselves
Trouble hearing noisy places
Turning up the TV louder than others prefer
Feeling left out of conversations
Misunderstanding words or sentences
If any of these sound familiar, it's worth getting checked - even if just for peace of mind.
Types & Levels of Hearing Loss
From mild to profound, and from sensorineural to conductive, hearing loss varies. But every type can impact how you engage with the world - and every type can be supported.
Tinnitus: That Ringing in Your Ears
If you hear buzzing or ringing in the absence of sound, you may have tinnitus. You're not imaging it, you are not alone. There are therapies and strategies that can help reduce the impact.
Helping Someone You Love
If your partner, parent, or friend is struggling to hear, approach them with kindness and understanding. Offer to book a test together. Reassure them: there's no shame in seeking support. It's an act of love.
