What's on
Talks by Dr Lawrence Hill
Talk 1: Demystifying Tinnitus
Ringing, buzzing, hissing: tinnitus affects 1 in 7 adults according to Tinnitus UK and it can feel overwhelming.
Join Dr Lawrence Hill for a clear talk about what tinnitus is, why it happens and how to live well with it.
Whether you have tinnitus yourself, know someone who does, or
simply want to understand it better, you are very welcome.
There will be time to ask questions, and you'll leave with a clearer
picture and some practical ideas to take home.
Refreshments
Take a break and have a chat with us.
Talk 2: Hearing Better in Noise
Busy restaurants, family gatherings, a chat in the car: noisy places are where
many people find hearing hardest.
Many of the leading hearing aid manufacturers have launched significant new technology this year, so there's a lot to make sense of. In this talk, Dr Lawrence Hill will walk you through what's new and how it can help in noisy situations.
You'll also hear from some of our patients and what they have learned along the way.
Meet the team
Lawrence Hill, our audiologist, and Charmaine, Business Manager, will be on hand all day to answer your questions.
