Hi @Jazzguitar, did you manage to speak to your GP as people suggested on your other post? Your GP will be the best person to assess your hearing and put you in touch with the right services for a hearing aid! Good luck

What about going somewhere like Specsavers (for a hearing test), is there any reason why a person shouldn't?
