Fundraising Manager Sharon Craig said: “We are delighted with the support from Edwards and Company Solicitors who have been amazing to work with raising almost £9000 to date. We are looking forward to this challenge and hopefully winning! All funds raised throughout the year by Edwards and Company will directly support deaf people, hard of hearing people and people with tinnitus in Northern Ireland”

Dorcas Crawford, Senior Partner from Edwards and Company Solicitors said: “We’re delighted to be involved with this very worthwhile charity and to be working together this year to raise much needed funds as well as the profile of the whole issue of hearing loss and tinnitus.

"The firm has been involved in hearing loss cases since the 1980s for shipyard workers and more recently for police officers so we have a real understanding of the harrowing effects on people’s lives. For us, this is an opportunity to give something back.”

Hearing loss affects 1 in 6 people across Northern Ireland, over 300,000 people with this figure set to rise as our society ages. Action on Hearing Loss provides vital services across Northern Ireland and relies on the support of companies such as Edwards and Company to ensure these continue.
