Steve and I are raising money for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People
We have volunteered for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People for around 6 years now and are constantly in awe of this fabulous charity. Any money you can spare will help train the amazing puppies that go on to become life changing support dogs.
Steve has agreed to complete the course with me for the first time. He may walk more than he runs, but no matter how long it takes, we will both complete the Great South Run with the aim of raising much needed funds. Thank you for any support you can give. Every penny we 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 we are taking on is a great way to raise funds to train more dogs. Any donation, however large or small, will really help.
Thank you,
Jane and Steve
