Hearing Dogs for Deaf People collection – Ilkeston – 11th March

Bob and Dawn Sweptone and their hearing dog Digby will be at the Ilkeston branch of Morrisons on Wednesday 11th March to carry out a collection to raise funds for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People.  All donations are very welcome and greatly appreciated.

The charity helps people living with deafness and hearing loss to rebuild connection, companionship and confidence and supports people through their Hearing Dogs and Hearing Link Services.

Hearing Dogs train dogs to alert deaf people to important and life-saving sounds they would otherwise miss – such as the smoke alarm, alarm clock and even a baby’s cry.

Being aware of these – thanks to a hearing dog – makes a real difference to deaf people’s lives, and can even save them.
