28 Challenge 2026

Help me reach my goal of £500

28 Challenge

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.

Let the 28 Challenge commence

Sunday 1st Feb
It is finally here, 1st February, and we're officially off to a great start. Our fundraising is going very well and we are continuing to get great support.
Jennifer Brown is running a silent auction for us, with some beautiful pieces of Kim Anderson artwork donated by Corinne Bullock. Jennifer has also put together some amazing raffle hampers that I am hoping I win.
Corinne has also donated to our stash of raffle prizes.
Marie Foulk has been making and selling some gorgeous gemstone bracelets, and her friend is making book craft hedgehogs.
Not forgetting Lisa Marie's lucky dip and yes, it's for grown ups. craft painted bottles, candle holders, coasters, plant pots and more. 
It's going to be a blast.

We are so lucky
