We're 100

Our centenary

In 1911, Leo Bonn, inspired by his own deafness began our organisation that has now become Action on Hearing Loss.

As we turn 100, we will strive even harder to:

  • find a cure for hearing loss and tinnitus
  • reach the four million people with a hearing loss who don’t wear hearing aids but whose quality of life would be enhanced by doing so.
