Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am hard of hearing and have a hearing dog. Before I got her my life was very lonely and scary. My hearing dog has made me more independent and confident now. I have not had her for long but I honestly can't imagine life without her now. I want to be able to help other people receive what I have, this is why I am doing the fun run and want to raise as much money as I possibly can to help. Please support me and sponsor me.

I started to lose my hearing in 2003 that was also when we found out i suffer with Meniere's Disease and my hearing is progressively deteroriating.
