Safe Listening Week 2025 Wrap-Up: This year’s theme — “Turn It Up Right” — reminded us that protecting our hearing is more than just avoiding risk. It’s about everyday self-care, supporting mental health, and feeling confident in our choices.
Throughout the week we explored:
🎧 Train Your Volume – learning your safe listening baseline
🔊 Know Your Levels – understanding the sounds around you
💛 What Lifts You Up – noticing how sound shapes your mood
🌱 Your Sound Rituals – building small, repeatable habits
😌 Recharge Through Sound – resting and resetting through quiet moments
📝 Your Sound Strategy – creating your own approach to safe listening
👏 You’re Already Making Sound Choices – celebrating the steps you’re already taking

Held annually in the last week of August, Safe Listening Week is now in its third year. Thank you for joining us in 2025 to celebrate positive, empowering habits that protect hearing, strengthen mental wellbeing, and support everyday connection.

A huge thank you to our incredible volunteers who joined us at last week’s Volunteer Workshop.

Together we explored new ways to strengthen support for people with hearing loss across Queensland. The energy, ideas, and passion in the room were inspiring — and we left with plenty of initiatives to take forward.

Everything we do is about making life better for those living with hearing difficulties, and we couldn’t do it without you. 🙏
