The British Tinnitus Association strives to be the primary source of support and information for people with tinnitus in the UK, facilitating an improved quality of life.

It aims to encourage prevention through its educational programme and to seek a cure for permanent head noise through a medical research programme.

How Does the British Tinnitus Association Help?

The BTA works to help individuals with tinnitus and the wider public understand more about tinnitus, coping strategies and raising awareness amongst the general public.

It does this via:

• A confidential freephone helpline
• Information leaflets, produced by leading medical professionals that are disseminated free of charge
• Production of ‘Quiet’ BTA’s quarterly magazine
• www.tinnitus.org.uk that contains information and advice for all audiences
• Attending awareness raising events across the UK

The BTA also works with medical professionals to support medical and clinical research and supports professionals to gain the skills and understanding of tinnitus to treat patients.

The BTA achieves this through:

• Running Tinnitus Advisor Training courses
• BTA’s annual conference
• Providing a bursary scheme for professionals to attend tinnitus-related training
• Supporting medical research into tinnitus
