Story

Welcome to Cath and Penny's JustGiving page.  We are incredibly grateful for each and every donation to this cause - thank you so much!

If there was a three-legged stool whose legs represented hearing, running and dogs... then you'd find me right there sitting on it because the intersection of those three things is where you find Cath George! 

I'm an audiologist working in the field of cochlear implants, I've been a keen runner for about 17 years now, and I'm also a dog owner and dog lover.  My younger dog, Indy, is also my training buddy and regularly runs up to 13miles with me.  

Imagine if you had a severe hearing loss and couldn't hear things like door bells, alarm signals or traffic.  Then imagine having a waggy friend who not only helps with those, but also provides love, loyalty and companionship.  The difference hearing dogs make to their owners is immense.  Thanks for helping to support their amazing work! 

Still thinking about it? Then paws for thought, sit down, roll over and dig deep! Help make running the marathon a little less ruff! ;-) 

My very good friend and running buddy, Penny Lynch, is running with me and also raising money for Hearing Dogs- thank you to all of Penny's friends and family too! :-)
