Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

2019 sees local deaf charity, GDA, celebrate their 100th anniversary. The charity has been seeking 100 people to take on a challenge as part of their anniversary celebrations and this is my contribution to help them raise much needed funds that will enable them to continue offering life-changing services and support to the thousands of deaf and hard of hearing children, young people and adults living in Gloucestershire, Wiltshire and South Gloucestershire. 

I will learn words that I can use in my work and aim to complete the challenge by the end of May. In my past when I was a Speech and Language Therapist it was important to know different ways of communicating with people, which included some sign language. However, that was a long time ago and so I'm starting from scratch again, which is a bit daunting, but I'm looking forward to it.  

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Thank you,
