Pedigree Chums of Hidden Hearing - Dragon Boat Racing 2011 · 17 September 2011

Hearing Dogs for Deaf People trains dogs to alert deaf people to important and life-saving sounds such as the smoke alarm, alarm clock, intruder alarms and baby monitors. These amazing dogs also help deaf people to leave loneliness behind by providing love, companionship and emotional support.

Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.<br><br>On the 17th September, I&rsquo;ve been bloody stupid enough to help out with the <strong>Hidden Hearing Dragon Boat team </strong>at Bewl Water. With my natural athletic prowess, and god-given ability to float, I can see just <em>why</em> they snapped me up...<br><br>As such, with these kind of things, I am required to raise sponsorship, for a fantastic cause. Our team &lsquo;<em>Pedigree Chums of Hidden Hearing</em>&rsquo; is going to be raising money for<strong> Hearing Dogs for Deaf People</strong>. If you&rsquo;re not quite sure what it&rsquo;s about then read on!<br><br>Hearing Dogs for Deaf People is a registered charity that selects and trains dogs to respond to specific sounds. Hearing dogs alert people by touch, using a paw to gain attention and then lead them back to the sound source. For sounds such as a smoke alarm and fire alarm the dogs will lay down to indicate danger.<br><br>Hearing Dogs for Deaf People provides a national service and no charge is made to recipients. The charity has been running since its inception in 1982, and has placed more than 1500 hearing dogs.<br><br>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.<br><br>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
