Member: APAT – The Spanish Association for People Affected by Tinnitus

Tinnitus can have a significant impact on everyday life and often leaves people feeling lost after diagnosis. APAT (Asociación de Personas Afectadas por Tinnitus) has been working since its foundation to inform, advise and support people affected by tinnitus. The Spanish organisation provides personal, telephone and written support and works with professionals in ENT medicine, neurology and psychology. A particular focus is on helping people develop ways of living with tinnitus so that it has as little impact as possible on their quality of life.

 

Vision: To inform and support people affected by tinnitus and help them live with the condition while minimising its impact on their quality of life.
