The Prime Minister was reunited with his four-legged namesake during the launch of a south Bucks charity event in Westminster yesterday.

David Cameron showed his support for Saunderton-based charity Hearing Dog’s For Deaf People’s Great British Dog Walk alongside CEO Michele Jennings, Richard Carr and his hearing dog Cameron at the launch in Portcullis House.

The dog was named after the Conservative Leader as a result of the latter’s visit to the charity’s 30th anniversary celebrations at Heythrop Park, Oxfordshire back in 2012.

Ms Jennings said: “It was fantastic to be in Westminster to spread the word of what we do and more specifically about our Great British Dog Walk events.

“The walks are starting this weekend and will conclude on 4 June when we will be back in London at Osterley Park.”

The event sees 20 organised walks take place at National Trust sites across the UK - including one at Hughenden Manor, High Wycombe, in April - to raise funds for the charity.

“Hearing dogs alert deaf people to important sounds such as fire alarms, text messages or even their baby crying.

“They are also great for making friends - many lovely friendships have been forged through our dogs.”

The Great British Dog Walk event at Hughenden Manor, High Wycombe, takes place from 11am on April 17.

Adult tickets are £10. Children and dogs go free. Tickets can be purchased at www.greatbritishdogwalk.org/hughendenmanor.php.
