Raising money for

Deafblind UK

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.

My story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page!

I'm well on my way now to my £1000 target but still have some way to go. Thanks so much to everyone who has donated so far.
I've been in touch with the charity and the money will certainly be spent well:

· £11 could help to pay for the costs of identifying, processing and responding to an email that identifies a vulnerable deafblind person.

· £30 could pay for a mobility cane and tactile markers to help a deafblind person move around safely.

· £90 a day is what is costs to keep our FREE helpline open to all deafblind callers, their families and carers who need emotional and practical support

· £150 could help to train a Volunteer Befriender in the skills needed to support a deafblind person

My training is going quite well at the moment. The longest run I've done is 16 miles and I'm trying to increase every week. My knees seem to be holding up and I've actually started enjoying it!

Looking forward to April...

Thanks,
Stephen
