I'm raising money for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People
Scooby is part of our family and our lives, and we wouldn’t have her if it wasn’t for Hearing Dogs! I met a Hearing Dogs volunteer who was training a cockapoo and fell in love with him so much that I decided to get Scooby. So taking part in the Great British Dog Walk is payback for the creator of chaos that is Scooby.
My goal is to walk 100 miles in October, which is double what I’d normally do – quite a challenge for me.
Every mile I walk, 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 Great British Dog Walk, I am helping to raise funds to train more dogs. Any donation, however large or small, will really help.
Thank you.
