Today more people than ever are living with hearing loss.
An estimated 1 in 3 people in the UK are affected.
Hearing loss can lead to withdrawal from social situations, and depression. This makes the work we do more important than ever.
I lived with constant worry about my personal safety. At my very worst points, I used to sleep a lot so there were fewer waking hours in the day, counting down the hours until bedtime.
Now, Wilbur brings warmth and connection every single day. Because I know he will alert me to sounds, I’m so much more relaxed.
Before, I lived life in the shadows, unable to join in. I feel like I’m truly living now and that’s all because of Hearing Dogs.
