On WHO World Hearing Day, March 3, you can in many European countries get a free hearing test by visiting a hearing care professional.
Professional hearing care is important and relevant for all those with a hearing loss, from small children to the elderly.
The offer of a free hearing test on WHO World Hearing Day, March 3rd, is provided by AEA, (Association of the European Hearing Aid Professionals).
Around 16-17% of all adults have a hearing loss, when measured with a hearing test. Unfortunately only around one in three (name of inhabitants) treat their hearing loss with professional hearing care. This means that 10% of all (name of inhabitants) do not treat their hearing loss.
The offer of a free hearing test on WHO World Hearing Day is supported by EFHOH (European Federation of the Hard of Hearing), EHIMA (European Hearing Instruments Manufacturers Association) and hear-it AISBL.
