Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Daniel is Deaf and a full BSL user. Whilst he is proud of his deaf identity and language, deafness had a huge impact on sleep and school life, including being able to make friends, as he has few friends who can sign. He was matched with Hearing Dog Varley in 2016 and since then his life has been transformed. Now he is able to sleep knowing that Varley is there beside him, he feels safe knowing that Varley will alert him to danger and wake him in the morning when the alarm goes off.
Daniel has grown in confidence and independence, since he has had Varley at his side. Varley is a very special part of our family, he is Daniel's best friend, helping him to leave loneliness behind.
Hearing Dogs rely on donations to train amazing dogs like Varley, the Coronavirus outbreak will affect all fundraising activity so please give a little if you can.
Daniel has created a signed clip, showing signs for the finger spelt alphabet and 26 signs linked to lock-down. He would love you to watch, enjoy and learn a few signs, regardless of whether you can donate at this time. Watch it on YouTube
