Our volunteers
Our volunteers are instrumental in delivering nationwide support and information to people who are deaf, have hearing loss or tinnitus. Their stories show what they gain from the experience, too.
The beauty of volunteering for me is that I can do something really hands-on to help… Residents in the care homes are always so happy to see us, and I have a lovely chat with them as well as fixing their hearing aids.”
– Barry, RNID care homes volunteer
