84 year-old Stella has been vegan for over 30 years. The past few years have been extremely challenging for her because her hearing has deteriorated rapidly. This has left her feeling isolated from those around her, whom she struggles to understand.
After years of being withdrawn from society and nodding and smiling in what I hoped were the right places, I can now converse with people without constantly asking them to repeat themselves. It is very liberating, with my confidence boosted no end.
When she heard about the Vegan Fund she thought it could be her solution. Stella received her new hearing aid in December 2017, thanks to the Vegan Fund.
