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

It has taken me two years but I have finally washed my Dalmatian outfit after the 2003 London Marathon!

Running in the dog outfit is really tough and hot and knowing that lots of people are kindly helping me to help Hearing Dogs makes it so much more bearable and so thank you so much for your support.

Hearing Dogs is a superb charity which trains dogs (many of them from rescue centres) to alert their deaf owners to all sorts of very important sounds. I have met many recipients of the dogs and can promise you that they could not imagine life without their hearing dog.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Hearing Dogs For Deaf People will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

Many thanks for your support. Ed
