WHICH AID FOR YOU?


★ At our centre there are many different aids available — here are


a few examples. ★ A tiny one that tucks away behind the oar yet has the power


of the box-type of aid. * Directional and forward-facing microphones help to sort out voices


in crowd situations. * BC aids, nothing fitted in the


ear. ♦ Friendly, export advice is avail­


able to give guidance on which- type will give you the best hearing at the least cost.


THE STARKEY CE5. The electronic circuitry is made to meet individual requirements. It fits completely into the ear (nothing behind, no tubes or wires). The CE5 takes advantage of the ear’s natural sound-collecting charac­ teristics. This combination gives the maximum benefit which can mean years of ‘le t te r hearing" and is now available at our centre. STARKEY LABS OF AMERICA have years of experi­ ence in development of this type of aid and now have production and service facilities established here in the North-West. An experienced representative will be here explaining the benefits of the CE5.

Problems of noise


FEARS that noise from industrial units being built on the old Albion Mill site, Clitheroe, might cause problems to people living nearby, were ex­ pressed by Coun. John Cowgill at a meeting of the Ribble Valley Council. His concern was shared


by Coun. Howel Jones (Clitheroe) who com­
