Hearing well is something that’s helpful in lots of situations, so you will find people using hearing devices in all sorts of places.

Detectives use listening devices to hear conversations which might help them solve crimes…

You also might have seen pop stars wearing small devices in their ears…

These are ear monitors which help them hear their own voices or instruments while they sing – something that can be difficult when you’re surrounded by thousands of screaming fans!

People that go to concerts often wear earplugs to protect their hearing from loud sounds…

You’ll also see people wear earplugs at airshows, motor races and even when mowing their lawn!

Earplugs are a good way to protect your hearing when sounds around you are dangerously loud.

Hearing devices aren’t just for those with hearing problems – they can help anyone hear better and healthier!
