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

Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page!

I've always dreamt of running the London Marathon however it's something that I didn't think would ever happen - especially when I couldn't even run 5km! 

I'm running for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People, an amazing charity that trains assistance dogs to alert severely and profoundly deaf people to important sounds and signals; including the fire alarm and cooker timer. They also provide support and guidance for people affected by hearing loss. 

Deafness can cause people to become isolated, lonely and disconnected from friends, family, colleagues and their local community. I'm lucky enough to see first hand the impact of these clever dogs and how much of a difference your kind donation will make to people's lives.

Thank you so much for your support and I hope to see you cheering me on at the marathon! :)
