Hearing Me – A Documentary for the BBC World Service

Posted by

BBC World Service

Something exciting happened last month!

I was involved in making a radio documentary for the BBC World Service, which describes some of my experiences of living with hearing loss and tinnitus, and also reminds us not to take our hearing for granted.

I feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to take part in this, and to be able to share my story.

Hearing Me, is now up on the BBC World Service’s schedule: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/w3csynqv

The documentary will be played several times so that people in different time zones can listen to it. You can find these by clicking ‘more’ below the programme information.

Afterwards, it will be available online through the same link as above, and it will also be part of their ‘The Documentary’ podcast series: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p02nq0lx/episodes/downloads

Please note there will a transcript to enable listeners to follow the dialogue.

A huge thank you to Chelsea Dickenson and Audio Always for creating such a personal and creative piece, I absolutely love it, and hope my readers/listeners (!) all do too!

    1. Thanks Al! Yes, I’m very excited about this 🙂 It’s a radio documentary, so you’ll just be able to listen to me on the radio/via the internet. They are going to provide a transcript so that people can follow the dialogue and sounds on the recording.
      I hope you are well my blogging buddy?!

    1. Hi Ralph! Oh that’s great you have registered with the BBC 🙂 I hope you enjoy the programme! The producer of the documentary had seen my blog and contacted me because she was interested as to whether I would be happy to share my story. Of course I was! 🙂
      Sending love to you and Natascha
