Would you like to join the Hearing Dogs Running Team in the 2022 Great North Run? We have a number of guaranteed charity places available for this amazing half marathon which takes you from the centre of Newcastle upon Tyne across the iconic Tyne Bridge and out to the coastal town of South Shields with an atmosphere that is simply electric!
Runners are asked to pledge £300 sponsorship which will enable us to create even more life changing partnerships and help deaf people leave loneliness behind. As part of the Hearing Dogs team you will receive a full Supporter Pack including sponsor forms and a running vest, as well as ongoing support with your fundraising and a warm welcome with refreshments and the chance to meet a hearing dog once over the finishing line.
If you are lucky enough to gain a place through the public ballot and want to run for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People, please let us know. Own-placed runners are asked to raise a minimum of £50 sponsorship to claim their running vest.
Martin said: "As a life-long profoundly deaf person who has benefitted from a Hearing Dog for two years, I know what a difference my canine companion, Inca, makes. And I wanted to give something back to help the charity help others. The Great North Run was a magical experience. The smiling faces. The support. Not easy, but then again when was something worthwhile ever easy?"
