Tinnitus Action is a founder-led initiative that helps people channel the frustration of living with tinnitus into practical steps supporting better treatments. Founded by Johan Fredriksson, who has lived with tinnitus since 2007, the platform coordinates opportunities to help advance research into treatments that could substantially reduce or silence tinnitus itself.

Visitors can find actions based on what they are able to contribute, including funding research, taking part in studies, sharing research opportunities with potential participants, and offering their skills. The site also lets people browse available actions or describe an action of their own. Its guided suggestions require no account or symptom questions, and users decide for themselves whether to follow through; most actions take place on the relevant organisation’s website.

Tinnitus Action reports 14 available ways to help and two actions reported as completed, counting an action only when someone confirms completion. Its broader ambition is to coordinate a million actions, bringing people’s time, skills, and connections together to support research and build hope for improved tinnitus treatments.
