On 14 March, I will be climbing the iconic O2 Arena. More importantly (apart from looking forward to experiencing London like never before and enjoy breathtaking panoramic views), it’s all in aid to support Hearing Dogs for Deaf People – all in one incredible day!
This challenge isn’t about being the biggest or toughest event (my trepidation notwithstanding) – it’s about proving I can do it to raise important funds for the Hearing Dogs for Deaf People.
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.
