World Hearing Day 2026: Hearing Care for Every Stage of Life
Tuesday, March 3rd – Raising awareness with Coastal Hearing in North Wales
Each year, World Hearing Day is observed on March 3rd to raise awareness of hearing loss and the importance of ear and hearing care. In 2026, the campaign led by the World Health Organization (WHO) is centred around the theme:
🎧 “Hearing Across the Lifespan” – a call to make hearing care a priority from childhood to older age.
At Coastal Hearing, based in North Wales, we’re proud to support this global initiative by offering expert, independent hearing care to our community—because we believe everyone deserves the chance to hear clearly and live fully.
👂 Why It Matters
Hearing loss affects over 1.5 billion people worldwide. It can impact learning, relationships, work, and wellbeing—but in many cases, it’s preventable or treatable. This year’s theme highlights the need for:
- Early hearing checks, even in children and teenagers
- Protecting hearing from loud noise at work, during leisure activities, or through headphone use
- Prompt support for age-related hearing loss
- Access to care, including hearing aids and wax removal services, especially in rural and underserved communities
🏥 How Coastal Hearing Is Making a Difference

- Comprehensive hearing tests for all ages
- Ear wax removal using gentle, modern techniques
