Welcome to the spring edition of Hearing Centre Headlines for 2017

It's been a busy start to the year and we can't believe that Easter is almost upon us already!

Lots of exciting things have been going on at Mary Hare School, including a former pupil appearing on the BBC series - The Big Painting Challenge. And the reopening of the refurbished swimming pool, thanks to the Sink or Swim appeal. Thursday 4 May is Wear IT Loud day and we'll be clearing our diary of appointments, for that day, so people can drop in for a free hearing assessment.

Wear IT Loud
Every year pupils and staff at Mary Hare School dress up in their loudest clothes to raise funds for the Mary Hare Foundation. This year Wear IT Loud takes place on Thursday 4 May.

Refurbished pool reopens

18 everyday sounds that can hurt your hearing
There are more than 11 million people in the UK with some form of hearing loss, or 1 in 6 of the population. By 2035, it’s estimated that there’ll be 15.6 million people with hearing loss in the UK - that’s 1 in 5. Exposure to loud noise is a leading cause.

The Big Painting Challenge
Former Mary Hare pupil, Ruaridh Lever-Hogg, took part in the BBC series, The Big Painting Challenge, earlier this year. Find out how he got on.

Recycle your unwanted hearing aids
Do you have a drawer full of old hearing aids that don’t work anymore? Don’t have a clue what to do with them? Send them to the Hearing Aid Repair Shop. For every unwanted hearing aid you send them, they’ll send you a FREE pack of batteries.

Save the date
This year, we'll be holding our annual Open Day on Tuesday 10 October at Arlington Arts Centre.
