Upcoming Events

At The Hearing Care Partnership, we work closely with our partners – most commonly opticians, alongside other trusted community organisations – to host a variety of events throughout the year. These events give you the opportunity to learn more about your hearing, speak directly with expert audiologists, and explore our services in a relaxed, welcoming environment.

Whether you join us for an Open Day, a friendly Coffee Morning, or a Community Visit, each event is designed to support you in taking positive steps towards better hearing health.
