Hear and Say 2026

I’m getting LOUD to support children with hearing loss.

Did you know?

1 in 6 Australians and New Zealanders are impacted by hearing loss – a figure set to rise to 1 in 4 by 2060.
1 in 1,000 Babies in Australia and New Zealand are born with a permanent hearing loss.
1 in 300 School-age children require assistance because of permanent hearing loss.

Please support me by donating online to help me reach my fundraising goal. Your support will help Hear and Say provide the vital services and support for children to hear, listen and speak. 

Let’s get LOUD to raise much-needed awareness and funds to give children with hearing loss the opportunity to thrive!

Let’s get Loud!

Tuesday 1st Sep
This year, we are participating in Loud Shirt Day to raise funds to support children with hearing loss! 💙

For those who know us, our 8-year-old son Ben was born profoundly deaf. We were incredibly blessed to have access to early support and intervention, as well as cochlear implants.

Today, Ben enjoys life to its fullest. He plays the keyboard, speaks both Portuguese and English, and gets to experience all the wonderful sounds life has to offer.

We would love your support to help give other children with hearing loss the same opportunities Ben has had. 🙏

Every donation can help a child hear, communicate, learn and thrive.

Thank you for supporting this cause that is so close to our hearts! 💙
