Everyday Heroes

Are you one of our everyday heroes? Share your story with us.

At Oticon we could write poem after poem about the importance of good hearing, but instead we have chosen to engage the skills of three budding authors studying at the Writer’s School in Copenhagen. The short stories they have crafted provide some insight into how hearing loss can affect people’s lives - at school, at work, at home and among friends. And how hearing aids can turn a potentially negative situation into something positive.

The final chapter of this book is completely blank. It represents our invitation to you to share with us your own story - whether it resembles or completely differs to the tales printed here. We look forward to receiving your story!

You can choose to submit your story in print either by post to:

Oticon A/S
Kongebakken 9
2765 Smørum, Denmark
Att.: Melanie Kleinhammes Ibsen

Or by email to info@oticon.com.au

We are looking forward to receiving lots of different stories about your experiences with hearing loss. Such real life experiences are not only of great interest, they are also a great help to hearing aid wearers and their families. And your story could be among them.*

We look forward to receiving your input!
