Earlier this month, Mrs. Chloe Knott, our manager at the UK Veterans Hearing Foundation (UVHF), had the honour of attending and speaking at the CIOF Conference 2024. The event brought together leaders from various small charities to discuss the pressing issues they face, particularly in securing funding and sustaining their operations.
Chloe’s speech highlighted the lingering impacts of the coronavirus pandemic on small charities, the reluctance of funders to allocate resources to smaller organisations, and the need for a more supportive funding system. She shared valuable tips for working with trusts and foundations, emphasising the importance of clear communication and efforts to maintain relationships with grant providers over time.
The conference sparked important discussions within the charitable sector, aiming to inspire a shift towards more equitable funding practices that enable all charities, regardless of size, to effectively serve their communities.

On June 29th, 2024, the UK Veterans Hearing Foundation proudly participated in the Armed Forces Day event at Argents Mead, Hinckley. The event provided an excellent platform for raising awareness about the support our charity offers to veterans suffering from hearing loss and associated tinnitus.
Our team, dressed in UKVHF branded tops, engaged with the community through various activities, including raffle tickets, selling donations and sweet cones, and charity tins and handouts.
In just four hours, we successfully raised over £160 for our veterans! This event marked the beginning of many more to come, where we will continue our fundraising efforts and spread awareness about the challenges faced by veterans with hearing loss.
The event commemorating the historic capture of Fort Niagara we participated in this year was not just a nod to history but a true showcase of community spirit and giving.
The foundation is proud to share that the event was a standout success, with over £1500 raised to help veterans facing hearing loss challenges. This achievement was made possible by the wonderful people who joined in, whose generosity turned our goals into reality.
The raffle was a big part of the evening, filled with laughter and anticipation. As the winners were called out, each prize brought a smile and a moment of happiness. Seeing the winner of the hamper basket light up with joy was a highlight of the night. It reminded us all why these events are so important. They bring people together to help others, and that’s a wonderful thing. Each smile, each thank you, showed just how much the community cares and contributes to our cause.
As we step into the new year, the foundation is buoyed by the unwavering support and enthusiasm of our community. The dedication and commitment demonstrated by our supporters are the driving force behind our ongoing efforts to enhance the lives of our veterans.
