Opportunities to Give Back

Hey everyone, so I’m posting on behalf of Action on Hearing Loss (RNID) and have never done something like this before but hopefully you’ll all be really positive about it. 1 in 6 people in the UK live with hearing loss and, as you can imagine, this can create a lot of barriers in day-to-day life. We work to stop the isolation hearing loss can cause and we fight to make things more accessible for those who live with this 24/7 condition. I’m really hoping some of you would be interested in supporting the work we do by joining our team of volunteers who help raise essential funds for us. There’s so many simple ways your support could help such as: speaking to community groups, placing collection tins in your local area or arranging coffee mornings. We’re a small team and so work with all our volunteers directly to make sure they have the best possible experience. Would love to know what you all think

Thanks for voting!
I am close friends with hearing dogs for the deaf charity. We take a long the dogs, which also makes people want to be friends. We are having a jumble in our village hall in a couple of week. You are not being ignored
