Spinnaker Abseil 2026

I am raising money for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People

Phil and I both sponsor a hearing dog and when I saw this challenge appear in my monthly newsletter I could not pass up the opportunity to take part, I have always wanted to abseil down the Spinnaker Tower and if I can raise money for a great charity at the same time then it’s a win win for me, if you would like to sponsor me then that would be so lovely and kind of you as this will benefit both children and adults to live a happier life with a very special companion, thank you 

Every penny I raise will help more hearing dog puppies to be trained, so that one day they can transform a deaf person's 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.
