South West Hearing Care

02/06/2026

We were pleased to welcome Adam Dance - MP for Yeovil and South Somerset to our new Crewkerne practice last week.

He met the team at South West Hearing Care, learnt more about the services we provide, and received an ear health check from Audiologist, Victoria.

It was great to share how we support hearing health in the local community and to have the opportunity to discuss the importance of early intervention.

Thank you to Mr Dance for taking the time to visit us.

Happy Somerset Day! 💛

Today is a day to celebrate this incredible county we’re proud to call home. From its rolling countryside to its strong sense of community, Somerset is a truly special place, and we feel lucky to be part of it every day.

We are proud to serve local communities through our hearing care clinics in Street, Crewkerne and Somerton and with so many of our team also from Somerset, it means we have a genuine connection to the people and communities we support every day.

Here’s to Somerset, its people, and everything that makes this county such a wonderful place to live and work.

A big moment is just around the corner for our trainee Audiologist, Ele 🎓

She is now sitting her final exams and assessment and in just a few weeks time, she will qualify as a fully registered Audiologist — a huge achievement and one we are all incredibly proud of.

Balancing studying, working in clinic, and family life is no small feat, but Ele has taken it all in her stride with real dedication and care for our patients.

Go Ele!

We have recently said a fond farewell to our wonderful Westbury receptionist, Sylvie, as she heads into a well-earned retirement 💐

Sylvie joined us in February 2023 and, over the past three years, has been a friendly and reassuring face for so many of our patients. Her warmth, kindness and organisation have made a real difference to our team and everyone who walked through our doors.

To mark the occasion, Sylvie was presented with a beautiful hand-tied bouquet from Munday's of Street, along with some gift vouchers as a small thank you for all she has done.

Sylvie tells us she is looking forward to spending more time with family and friends, making the most of her bus pass, joining new groups, and enjoying plenty of adventures by train!

We shall miss you, Sylvie, but we are so excited for your next chapter. Wishing you a happy, relaxing and fulfilling retirement.

The mental load of hearing loss is exhausting.

Not because of what you can’t hear, but because of how hard you’re working to keep up. Filling in the gaps, reading faces, trying not to miss anything.

Most people don’t see it—but you feel it.

If this sounds familiar, this piece may really resonate 👇
