Hearing Dogs for Deaf People was launched in 1982. Since then
Hearing Dogs for Deaf People have continued to train dogs to alert
deaf people to specific sounds, whether in the home, workplace
or public buildings.
Rotary in partnership with Hearing Dogs.
Rotary International in Britain and Ireland (RIBI) chose Hearing
Dogs as a preferred charity in its centenary year.
RIBI selected Hearing Dogs as their preferred UK charity during
2005-2006. With over 1,838 Rotary Clubs in Great Britain and Ireland,
the support Hearing Dogs has and continues to receive is tremendous
support. This has been achieved not only by Rotarians raising vital
funds but also supporting events, becoming speakers and helping
to spread the message about Hearing Dogs.
