What is an induction loop
and how does it work?
Hearing Loops allow people who wear hearing aids with built in T-coils or T-switches to directly receive the sound from the microphone in their hearing aids without having to pick up a separate listening device. If you wear hearing instruments you will need to find out if your devices come equipped with this wireless receiver built in, in order to hear better in church. Most of the time you can access the T program by pushing a button on your hearing aid or remote control. If your hearing aids do not have a separate T-program it may have to be activated by your audiologist.
In Europe thousands of hearing loops are in use, including one at Westminster Abbey
