Spread the word about LinkUps

Over the next couple of months we will be increasing our promotion of our LinkUp support groups in the hope of reaching even more people with this wonderful service.

We all know the positive, transformative impact our weekends and your peer support have on participants and their family members, but we need to let more people know about them.

We’ll be running a social media campaign on Facebook and X channels, so look out for our posts and reshare or comment if you can.

We are also hoping to reach people in their local communities by sending out posters to libraries, community centres and audiology departments.

“The LinkUp group empowered me and gave me signposts to look further in helping myself.”

Can you help?

We would love for you, our family of volunteers, to help spread the word in these different places.

If you could take an A4 poster into a local community setting, please let Penny know by emailing penny.perry@hearingdogs.org.uk and we will send you a pack.

Alternatively, if you can print your own poster we can send you a PDF. Or, we can arrange to send directly to your local audiology if you supply us with the details.

We are also keen to make sure LinkUps support groups are discussed during our Hearing Support Sessions in the communities. We have good availability on places for our BWC (York), Northern Ireland and Fife (Scotland) groups.
