Wednesday 12 March 2025, 1:00pm – 4:30pm, Newcastle University or online.

Co-organised by the NIHR Applied Research Collaboration (ARC) North East and North Cumbria (NENC) and the Sustainability and Resilience Institute.

Join this event exploring what we know, and what should be done, about the connections between mental health and hearing.

Mental health issues and hearing loss affect millions in England and around the world, with research showing that individuals with hearing loss are twice as likely to experience depression and other mental health issues.

In the North, where historically industrial areas have experienced higher rates of hearing loss, this connection highlights how environmental and socioeconomic factors drive health inequalities across regions.

The event will explore the latest findings on these issues, their impact on living and ageing well, and strategies to improve health and economic outcomes in areas most affected by these challenges.
