1. Do you frequently ask people to repeat themselves in busy social settings or noisy Bristol pubs?

2. Do family members or friends mention that the TV or radio volume is set too loud for comfort?

3. Do you find it hard to hear high-pitched sounds like birdsong, doorbells, or children's voices?

4. Do you experience ringing, buzzing, or hissing sounds in one or both ears (tinnitus)?

5. Do you feel mentally exhausted after group conversations or meetings due to concentrating intensely to hear?

6. Have you noticed difficulty understanding speech when you are not facing the person speaking (relying on lip-reading)?

What to Do After Your Assessment

If your quiz score indicates potential hearing loss, your next step is to request a free NHS clinical hearing test through your local GP. In Bristol, NHS audiology services are provided free at UHBW (St Michael's, Southmead, and community satellite clinics).
