Virgin London Marathon 2012 · 22 April 2012 ·

There are 189,000 Deaf, Hard of Hearing, Deafened and Deafblind adults, and at least 800 hearing impaired children living in Leicestershire. Research shows that 71% of over 70 year-olds have some sort of hearing loss, along with 41% of over 50s. We work towards an inclusive society by offering many services, including communication and interpreting.

Story

I am running for Action Deafness to help educate the hearing community about Deafness and D/deaf culture. I believe that through education the lives of hearing, deaf, and hard of hearing people will be enriched. 

I can say personally that learning American Sign Language and learning about deaf culture as opened my world up and has helped me to think and live in a new way.
