28 Challenge 2026

Help me reach my goal of £150

I'm raising money for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People

This February I am taking part in the 28 Challenge, and every pound I raise, will help train more life-changing hearing dogs for deaf people.

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 by taking part in The 28 Challenge, I am helping to raise funds to train more dogs. Any donation, however large or small, will really help.

Thank you.

My Updates

Less than 24 hours to go....

Saturday 31st Jan
Tomorrow morning, 1 February, I'll be uploading my handmade needle felted 'pets' for your kind purchase/donations.

Each is a one-off and takes between 1-3 hours to make, depending on the size.

Once again, I'll be covering the cost of postage and packaging, so please do be generous with your donations.

Every pound counts towards raising and training these special dogs, and allows volunteers, like me, to continue to give our time to help.

Once the felted 'pets' have sold, I'll be adding some handmade block printed items such as tea towels and cushion covers.
