As some of you know, I started running for charity back in 2005. It all started with a 5km Race For Life run and before I knew it I was running a half marathon for Hearing Dogs. I was overwhelmed by both the number of people who particpated for charity at these events and by the sponsorship and support that everyone gave me.
My chosen charity is again Hearing Dogs For Deaf People. I managed to raise over £573 for them in 2006 by running the Silverstone Half Marathon and I'm looking to raise more money for this good cause...
..and in a moment of madness I decided to run the london marathon - so think of me when you're tucking into your bacon and eggs on Sunday 22nd April 2007!
I have chosen to run for Hearing Dogs because many of the dogs they use come from rescue centres or are donated as unwanted pets. These dogs are then trained to alert their owners to every day sounds such as doorbells, alarm clocks, babies crying, smoke and fire alarms. Not only do they provide greater independance, they also provide them with much needed companionship. So this charity benifits people and provides loving working homes for many unwanted animals.
Hearing Dogs receives no government funding and relies solely on the generosity of individuals and organisations in order to keep helping deaf people and unwanted dogs. So 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: Hearing Dogs For Deaf People 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!
If you would like to sponsor me off line then please email me - giruff@gmail.com
Many thanks for your support.
