Over 80,000 people have taken the online hearing check – that’s thousands of people who will benefit from an early diagnosis and treatment for their hearing loss.  

Early diagnosis and treatment of hearing loss improves the outlook of hearing health, as well as other health conditions. We urgently need to reach more people – and we can only do so with your support. 

By donating today, you can help us reach thousands more – whether that’s online, or through our RNID Near You services. 

Help us protect the nation’s hearing by donating today. 

Alan's Story

In social occasions, I often had to ask for sentences to be repeated. I felt frustrated that I couldn’t distinguish sounds enough to understand the gist of the conversation. 

I took the hearing check and it confirmed that I should contact my GP and have him arrange for me to have a full hearing test. Eventually, I was called to the audiology department. I learnt that I had hearing loss in both of my ears, and they suggested a treatment plan for me. 

Now I feel more relaxed in company knowing that, provided it is not a large group, I should be able to hear the conversation more clearly.
