The Great British Dog Walk, a popular charity walk run by national assistance dog charity Hearing Dogs for Deaf People, is back for a ninth year and will be taking place at Askham Bryan College, York, for the first time on Saturday, 13 April 2024.
Hundreds of walkers, and dogs of all shapes and sizes, will be taking part to have fun, meet like-minded people and support Hearing Dogs for Deaf People, the charity that trains clever dogs to alert deaf people to important and life-saving sounds. The walk is sponsored by Specsavers Audiologists, helping Hearing Dogs to raise more funds to change the lives of deaf people.
” Everyone taking part in the walk will be helping the charity train more hearing dogs that will change the lives of people like Joanna Thompson from Tadcaster. Joanna, whose son is studying at Askham Bryan College, was partnered with her hearing dog Joey in 2016. Mum-of-three Joanna struggled for many years with tinnitus and mild hearing loss, but it came as a shock when she was told her hearing had deteriorated so much she needed hearing aids.
