My story

Hello!

(You can now track my training progress here - https://twitter.com/RichKingston)

Next May I am cycling from Crystal Palace to Paris to raise money for Deafblind UK and it would be amazing if you could help me reach my fundraising target, I will be cycling just over 500km over 4 days to raise at least £1400.

 

Deafblind UK is an organisation that is run by and helps people who are deafblind or have a combined sight and hearing loss. They work with as many people as possible who are deafblind or have a combined sight and hearing loss and offer services to support individuals to live as fulfilling lives as possible. They campaign for;

- Improved identification of deafblind people

- Planning and budgeting based on significantly increased future demands and savings from early intervention

- Improving health and social care assessments

- Provisioning of appropriate and accessible social care services

- Government policy that recognises the significant
and growing support needed for deafblind people


There are over 350,000 people in the UK who are categorised as Deafblind and this is expected to rise to 440,000 by 2020 and your donation will help the charity support and raise awareness of this condition that isn't given nearly enough support by our current government.

 

Please can everyone click Gift Aid if you are kind enough to donate to me! It allows the charity to reclaim the tax on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer and doesn't cost you any extra money. I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

 

Thanks,

Richard

Charity Registration No. 802976

Deafblindness is one of the most challenging disabilities that a person can endure, and has been described as ‘the loneliest condition in the world’ Established in 1928, Deafblind UK is a national charity offering people across the UK living with Deafblindness, or a combined sight and hearing loss, practical daily-living support and access to vital information. Each deafblind person is unique, and sometimes has complicated needs; often their deafblindness is combined with other disabilities, so a care programme can be very complex. By providing human support in the form of help at home, communication and mobility support, counselling, together with specially adaptive equipment, we help deafblind people achieve their full potential, whatever that may be.
