Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.  We ran together on Sunday and completed the 5km in 37 minutes 25 seconds.  Of course it rained and it was freezing but we were helped by the very warm felt suits and beards that acted like balaclavas………

We are running to raise funds for RNID, the charity that aims to change the world for 9 million people who are deaf or hard of hearing. Deafness and hearing loss affects the quality of life of 1 in 7 of the population. Yet it can take someone up to 15 years before they take action that helps.

Did You Know?

700,000 people in the UK are severely or profoundly deaf
• 55% of people over 60 are deaf or hard of hearing 4 million people who experience hearing difficulties in everyday life do not have a hearing aid

Having properly working hearing aids changes people's lives. Please support this fantastic charity and help us to reach another 18,000 vulnerable people across the UK.
