“Noise induced hearing loss stories resonate with many of us. People spend years brushing off the ringing in their ears and missing parts of conversations thinking it was just part of getting older. When it comes time to get help it can be frustrating, but talking to someone who actually served can make all the difference. – Mark Ormrod MBE”

Noise Induced Hearing Loss Claims

Those serving in the British armed forces often experience noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) during their service, particularly from exposure to loud noises in training exercises and operations, including duties such as operating heavy machinery, participating in live fire exercises, or working near aircraft.
NIHL typically affects the inner ear, leading to symptoms that may include:
- Ringing or buzzing in the ears (tinnitus)
- Difficulty understanding speech
- Muffled hearing
If you think you have suffered noise-induced hearing loss, you may be entitled to compensation.

“Veterans for Veterans have the experience to guide you through the claims process. They understand us because they served alongside us. When it comes to claiming for noise induced hearing loss, you can trust them to get the job done. – Mark Ormrod MBE”
