We discuss your hearing
We ask about your hearing, lifestyle, symptoms and any concerns you or your family have noticed.
Free adult hearing tests at home
Hear Better provides free professional adult hearing tests at home across Newton Aycliffe. Both ears are checked, the findings are explained clearly and there is no obligation to buy hearing aids.

Arrange a home visit
Leave your details and Hear Better will call to understand what you need, confirm home-visit coverage in Newton Aycliffe and arrange your free adult hearing test.
No pressure. No obligation. Your details stay private.
Request a home appointment
The professional adult hearing assessment is free. Hear Better checks both ears, explains the findings and gives you time to decide what, if anything, you want to do next.
Local home hearing care
A hearing test is worth arranging if speech has become unclear, the television volume keeps increasing, group conversations are tiring or family members have noticed that you miss parts of conversations.
These changes do not confirm hearing loss on their own. A professional assessment checks what is happening in both ears and gives you clear findings before any next step is discussed.
Home-visit coverage is confirmed using the full postcode before an appointment is arranged.
