Hear to Help (Powys)

How can we help you

The volunteer service in the Powys area is run by the RNID. As a national hearing loss charity we understand that coping with hearing loss can often create difficulties for you and those around you. We run a free service that will give you the confidence to make the most of your hearing aids and manage your hearing loss effectively.

We can help you to keep your hearing aids working to their full potential. We can:

  • Carry out simple checks
  • Give advice on how to look after your hearing aid
  • Discuss equipment and replace batteries and tubing
  • Give tips on communication
  • Give advice on coping with hearing loss
  • Refer you to audiology

Who are we?

Our staff and volunteers are fully trained to help with hearing aid maintenance, as well as to give advice and support. Many of our volunteers wear hearing aids themselves, so we have first-hand experience of the difficulties you might be facing. We are always looking for new volunteers.

If you would like to help others make the most of their hearing aids, please do get in touch.

You can drop in to a monthly session at the local community - no need to book - or we may be able to visit you at home.
