Wireless Open Days

This week we are holding two exciting open days where we are showcasing the latest in wireless hearing aid accessories. Come along and find out how watching television and conversing on the telephone can be made so much easier by utilising wireless devices to hear the sound clearly straight into your hearing aids. We will have interactive and hands on demonstrations to show you just how easy these devices are to use.

We will also have on display our range of amplified phones for the hearing impaired and you will be able to try these out to see just how much louder and clearer than regular phones they are.

Come into our York shop on Friday 30th September, or our Scarborough shop on Thursday 29th September to see for yourself how much difference we can make to your hearing ability, particularly when watching television or talking on the phone. Discounted prices will be available on the day.
