LISTEN UP QUIZ Now!
Help us to combat child hearing loss in New Zealand.
Many children don’t know they have damaged their hearing until it's too late.
Youth hearing loss can be caused by genetics, complications at birth or use of
drugs, but also by preventable causes such as infections and ongoing exposure to
excessive noise.
Tragically, 60% of childhood hearing loss is due to entirely
preventable causes.
We are doing our part to combat youth hearing loss, but we need support from people
like you to raise awareness about the risks and how to protect a young person’s
hearing. You can also help us to support young New Zealanders who have a hearing
loss to access technology, tools and services that enable them to communicate and
connect with others.

New Zealand and around the world.
