Ararat residents can access the bus on Monday, October 1 at Safeway Ararat.
The bus will move to Stawell on Tuesday, October 2 to Brian Hancock’s Stawell Amcal Pharmacy while Halls Gap is the last stop on Wednesday, October 3 at Halls Gap Main Street, Grampians Road.
The bus will be available between 9am and 4pm.
Australian Hearing Horsham manager Angela Lonergan said because age-related hearing loss developed gradually, it was common for people to miss the warning signs.
“A hearing check is a quick and easy way to measure the sounds you can and can’t hear. Our team will also be on hand to guide you through what next steps you may have to take in regard to your hearing,” she said.
Ms Lonergan said no appointment was necessary.
“Australian Hearing will provide hearing checks to any interested adults over 18 who visit the bus on the day,” she said.
