Raising money for

Deafblind Scotland

Charity Registration No. SC031167

Deafblindness is a disability of a different order, often described as the loneliest condition imaginable. Deafblind Scotland seeks to improve the quality of life for this uniquely disadvantaged group of people and help them to overcome the barriers to full inclusion in society. This we do in partnership with Deafblind people.

My story

I am currently in training to trek up Kilimanjaro at the end of this year to raise funds for Deafblind Scotland. Deafblind Scotland is a small charity which works to support adults who have lost, or are losing both their sight and hearing. I am one of those people. Born profoundly deaf, I am now losing my sight too as a result of a genetic condition called Usher Syndrome.

Deafblind Scotland provides people like me with information, advice and specialised support and is the only organisation of its kind in Scotland working with adults with acquired deafblindness. I have been a member of the charity’s staff since 1997 and in my role as Training Manager seek to educate and equip sighted hearing people to deal with the daily challenges deafblind people face. I teach from first hand experience and few know better than me the value of Deafblind Scotland’s services.

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Deafblind Scotland will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.

Best wishes

Stephen
