I am raising money for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People
Hearing loss is debilitating it can rob a person of precious moments in their life and leave them not being able to enjoy life. As an audiologist I have seen how hearing aids can transform someone's life. Hearing dogs not only change a person’s life but they also are their companion giving them confidence back. This is why I am running the London Marathon for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People.
I want to raise as much money as possible so that more people can have an opportunity to get their confidence back and enjoy life again!
Every penny I raise will help more hearing dog puppies to be trained, so that one day they can transform a deaf persons life.
Hearing dogs are highly trained to alert deaf people to important and life-saving sounds, such as the smoke alarm, alarm clocks and even intruder alarms and baby monitors. They also provide lots of love, companionship and emotional support, which is really important as many deaf people can feel lonely and isolated.
It costs £25,000 to fully train a hearing dog, so the Challenge I am taking on is a great way to raise funds to train more dogs. Any donation, however large or small, will really help.
Thank you.
