We will post batteries and tubing to you.Please allow 10-14 days for delivery.

We have produced several videos on how to change tubing and batteries etc. If you do not have access to a computer the staff are able to talk you through how to maintain your aids. We already have many satisfied 'customers' who have learned how to look after their aids in this way!

We are all learning new ways of doing things.
