A large international study from Anglia Ruskin University and the British Tinnitus Association has found that nearly half (46%) of UK tinnitus sufferers report that their tinnitus has been made worse due to the impact of lockdown and lifestyle changes.

Our research study has gained lots of interest from the press including the Daily Mail, ITV's This Morning (at 0:26:15 if you watch here itv.com/hub/this-morning/2a..., Daily Express, local papers throughout the UK and international channels including Fox News (USA).

Through our work we’re representing your views, getting your voice heard, and raising awareness of tinnitus.

The Covid-19 pandemic is causing a tinnitus emergency, and we need your help to help those who need us.

If you are able to donate to help our work, you can do so over on the BTA website, but it's also very valuable if you can like and share our posts on Twitter and Facebook, and share the stories we put on our website.

You can find more information about this paper here, with a YouTube video that's shareable as well: tinnitus.org.uk/blog/covid-...

Thanks and best wishes

Nic (BTA Communications Manager)
