Are Specsavers audiologists currently open for new NHS referrals?

Hi

My referral finally came through just at the start of lockdown, and obviously there's been no appointments on the NHS referral website.

However, I managed to get an appointment for today at Specsavers, but when I went, they told me it was a mistake and the audiologist wasn't working today.

The system has let me rebook for next week, at a different Specsavers. I rang that branch but they weren't really sure whether the audiologist will be doing new referrals or just repairs.

I can obviously wait if I need to, but having come to terms with probably needing hearing aids in my 40's I don't want to have to keep building myself up to an appointment, if it's not going to happen yet!

Anyone know?

Thanks
