Thanks for visiting this page.
This year I am running the Silverstone Half Marathon to raise money for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People. They are a friendly charity who train dogs to help deaf people :) The dogs are trained to respond to certain noises in different ways whether it is the doorbell, a phone ringing or a fire alarm. In some situations it can be the dog that saves their owner's life. In lots of cases though, it just gives the owners confidence in going outdoors independently.

^ That's their webpage.. please have a look. It is a wonderful charity.
AND PLEASE DONATE. It's really easy. You can do it all with your debit card ;) I don't even see the money.. it goes straight to the charity!
Even if you aren't a fan of dogs, I'm sure you know people who have hearing imparities who you can support by donating. And if that isn't reason enough please donate for me.. cause i shall be running 13.1 miles don't you know!
Many thanks!
