Have you seen the work that this amazing charity does? Pretty incredible. I had no idea just how much difference to someone's life a Hearing Dog can make. That was until we started working with them.

I have met countless individuals and have their accounts of how life has been since partnering with a Hearing Dog (and what it could be like prior to that) and it's startling.

The Hearing Dogs for Deaf People charity is making a huge difference to people and we'd like to help just a little.

So here goes.

I'm running the 2012 London Marathon. Now, for those of who know me you'll know this is a bit of a challenge but, with some help and encouragement you may also know me well enough to know I'll do it one way or another. And I'm going to photograph the experience (at least I will as long as I'm still standing!)

So, please be generous and help me to help a lot of people across the UK.

Please dig deep and donate now.

Thanks!
