World Hearing Day 2026

Every March, World Hearing Day shines a spotlight on the importance of hearing health—yet millions across the UK continue to struggle in silence.

At Hearing Wales, your trusted local hearing specialists, we’re proud to support this global initiative by offering accessible hearing care support to the local communities of South, Mid and West Wales.

Taking care of your hearing is one of the most meaningful steps you can take toward maintaining your overall wellbeing. And with hearing loss more common than many people realise, there’s never been a better time to take action.


Hearing Loss in the UK: The Latest Statistics

Recent data shows just how widespread hearing loss has become across the UK:

  • Over 18 million adults in the UK suffer from hearing loss, equating to around 1 in 3 adults.
  • Updated UK estimates show that hearing loss is far more prevalent than previously reported, affecting people of all ages but increasing significantly with age.

With such staggering numbers, early detection and professional support are essential. Source: [rnid.org.uk]
