Your wellbeing is our top priority as we face
COVID-19 together.
Essential Health Information
Looking after your health is really important right now. That's why we've prepared the Essential Health Package, with key health information about how to stay safe during the COVID-19 crisis.
Caring for Your Wellbeing
To help you to care for your wellbeing during this challenging and uncertain time, we've created a Care Package with handy tips and suggestions for how to stay well at home.
Now, more than ever, we need to reach out
and say #ImHearForYou.
We're Here to Support You
It’s completely understandable if you feel overwhelmed by the news that we are back in Level 2 and 3 in New Zealand.
Just remember, we’ve done it before and we are here to support you through it.
We have a range of services available to help, and our team members are eager to connect with you if you need to talk.
#ImHearForYou
Isolation is an all too common experience for New Zealanders who live in a hearing world with hearing loss, and this is being exacerbated by the COVID-19 restrictions.
​
We are advocating for better accessibility for national communications and we are sending out care packages to the most vulnerable members of our community.
​
Your generous support will enable us to reach out and say I'm hear for you.

The Hearing Aid Fund has been created to assist New Zealanders with hearing loss who are facing financial hardship to purchase new hearing aids.

What We Do
Are You Up for the Challenge?
Hearing loss can significantly impact someone’s life 24/7. This September, in support of New Zealand Sign Language week, we’re inviting you to walk in the shoes of someone with hearing loss for 30 minutes.
Hearing Screening Programme
Kiwi kids are losing their hearing. Levels of youth hearing loss have skyrocketed over the last decade. To combat this, NFDHH is providing free hearing screenings at selected Secondary Schools across New Zealand.
Hearing Accredited Workplaces
11% of working New Zealanders have a hearing loss. The Hearing Accredited Workplace Programme will help your organisation to align your disability & inclusion strategy.
Take Action
There are many ways you can make a difference and get behind the 880,000 New Zealanders of all ages who are Deaf or have a hearing loss.
