Plug. The future in hearing protection

RNID, the Royal National Institute for Deaf People, is the largest charity working to change the world for the UK’s 9 million deaf and hard of hearing people. They run the ‘Don’t Lose The Music campaign’.We are exposed to more noise in our daily lives than previous generations. From research carried out with over 1000 young music fans in 2005, it was found that of the 56% of 16-30 year olds who regularly go to clubs and gigs, 76% of them have experienced ringing in their ears and/or dullness of hearing after a night out – the warning signs of permanent hearing damage.
