Residents in Melton East will be able to get their hearing checked for free in a vintage caravan turned mobile clinic.

Bloom Hearing provides metro and regional communities with convenient access to hearing screenings.

The caravan and Bloom’s hearing team will visit Bunnings in Melton East on Thursday, March 31.

The revamped American vintage caravan, nicknamed “Rikki” after it’s previous celebrity owner Poison band drummer Rikki Rocket, is a 1964 Bambi II Airstream and the only one of its kind in the country.

The free hearing checks take less than five minutes to complete and results will be ready immediately after.

Screenings will take place from 9am til 2pm.
