It’s Tinnitus Awareness Week, shining a light on a condition that affects nearly 1 in 10 New Zealanders.
This year’s focus is live music and tinnitus. From artists and industry professionals to gig-goers and music lovers, there’s growing awareness of how repeated exposure to loud sound can affect hearing health.
To keep enjoying the music and experiences you love without compromising your hearing, take a simple step like wearing ear plugs when you’re next heading to a concert.
