TORONTO, Sept. 14, 2022 /CNW/ -- This September, HearingLife Canada wants all Canadians to "Love Your Ears" and to nominate someone you care about facing hearing loss for a chance to win a pair of free hearing aids. HearingLife will award five nominees with free pairs of premium hearing aids.

Love Your Ears
HearingLife is spreading awareness about the vital need for hearing care with its "Love Your Ears" initiative, reminding everyone how hearing enriches our best experiences.
"Hearing is one of the five senses with which we experience life. If vision places the world in front of us, hearing puts us at its centre in a very personal way," said Jillian Price, HearingLife's chief audiologist. "When you love something, you take care of it, which is why we encourage all Canadians to love their ears."
Hearing Care Improves Health and Happiness
Nearly half of Canadians over 60 years old are living with some form of hearing loss, and many may not recognize the impact it's having on their quality of life.1 According to a 2020 Lancet report, people living with moderate hearing loss are twice as likely to experience cognitive decline as their peers, and those with severe hearing loss face five times the risk.2
Additionally, findings from a global survey of 24,000 people from 14 countries, conducted by Audika Group and YouGov, reveals hearing care can significantly improve health and happiness.
- Hearing aid wearers are three times more likely to be happier than those with untreated hearing loss.
- One in four reported better relationships, and 40% reported better conversations.
- A third felt more connected to their family.
Canadians can start loving their ears today by taking a free online hearing test or scheduling a no-obligation hearing test – no physician referral needed. Call 1-855-785-3616 or visit www.hearinglife.ca to find a local HearingLife provider near you.
