The ability to get around is vital in order to live a full life yet thousands of people with sight loss never leave home alone. We empower visually impaired people to do that and rely on the support of the public to fund the guide dog service.

Story

This coming May I'll be taking part in the BUPA Great Manchester Run, and raising money for Guide Dogs along the way! It's a 10k run and I'm aiming to complete it in less than 45 minutes, though no doubt I would be quicker with a guide dog to help! I hope you'll all agree that Guide Dogs is a great charity, and I've included some more details about it below. All contributions are of course gratefully received, and if it convinces you to give more I'm happy to consider further 'bonus' challenges for the run - within reason...

Thank you all for your donations, and to add a little extra to your giving, don't forget to tick the GiftAid box.

About Guide Dogs

We believe that every blind or partially sighted person has the right to a full, free, independent life - and we should remove all obstacles in their way.  Our work has been transforming the lives of many thousands of blind and partially-sighted people on a daily basis for over 75 years. Guide Dogs receives no government funding and relies on public donations to continue to provide our services, which is why we are so grateful that you have chosen to donate to Guide Dogs.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
