<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The St. Nicolas Restoration Group (SNRG) are commencing the next phase of their project which includes updating the audio-visual equipment in the building.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Consultation with Audiologists within the NHS indicate hearing aids compatible with induction loops will no longer be offered in the near future and replaced by units that use Bluetooth connection.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As a consequence SNRG are asking hearing aid users what they use to help inform what their solution should be. Is a hearing induction loop still required within the church? </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Could you therefore answer 2 quick questions in the attached survey? And return those answers as requested?</p>



<div class="wp-block-file"><a id="wp-block-file--media-8af07a47-51d4-4759-aade-76bbdf3629f5" href="https://swhw.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Hearing-Aid-Questionnaire.docx">Hearing Aid Questionnaire</a><a href="https://swhw.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Hearing-Aid-Questionnaire.docx" class="wp-block-file__button wp-element-button" download aria-describedby="wp-block-file--media-8af07a47-51d4-4759-aade-76bbdf3629f5">Download</a></div>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">SNRG thank you for helping shape how we best meet your needs going forward.</p>
