September 2026 Newsletter

Published On: September 8th, 2026

Our September 2026 newsletter introduces our new video, which gives a simple step-by-step look at what happens during a hearing assessment, from booking your appointment through to the consultation, the tests themselves, your results and the next steps.

This month, we also feature the Phonak Roger On™, an intelligent microphone that automatically recognises where speech is coming from, and look at how it can help in restaurants, meetings, online calls and other difficult listening situations.

There is also a feature on ear wax removal, explaining why softening the wax with a pharmaceutical grade oil in the days before your appointment makes the process quicker and more comfortable, along with a look at what ear wax actually is and the difference between irrigation and microsuction.

Finally, we trace a brief history of British Sign Language, from the earliest recorded use at a Leicester wedding in 1576 through to its legal recognition in the British Sign Language Act 2022, and how you can go about learning it today.

We hope you enjoy reading it.
