As a part of the Big Aussie Hearing Check, 600 hearing check-points will be set up including spots at Benalla, Howlong, Finley, Deniliquin and Corowa.
Kathryn Symes at Australian Hearing Albury said this year’s theme celebrates seniors’ enjoyment of activities.
“Maintaining good hearing is about communication, which boosts confidence in social situations and allows people to fully participate,” she said.
“A hearing check is one part of overall health monitoring and if a hearing loss is detected, we can advise next steps, suitable technology and provide ongoing support.”
On August 21 a bus will be at Hawkins Street, Howlong, from 12pm to 4pm and Amcal, Benalla, from 9am to 2pm.
