The drop-in sessions, organised by Action on Hearing Loss, are re-commencing on Thursday, September 24 between 10am and noon in The Beeches, Avondale Drive.

An Action on Hearing Loss spokesperson said: “Due to the coronavirus pandemic, we have made some changes to ensure the safety of our volunteers and service users.

“The session will now operate as a drop off/pick up service. Users will not enter the building.

”Hearing aids must be placed in a labelled envelope with the user’s name, DOB and contact details.

”They will be collected from the user’s car and brought into the centre for maintenance.

”Users can wait in their cars or return later to collect hearing aids. Hearing aids can be dropped off by friends/family on behalf of a user.”
