Guide Dogs are appealing for help kitting out the Atherton Centre. We don’t need you to lay bricks, drill post holes or man the cement mixer – we’d like you to help us kit out the school by raising funds or making a donation! However large or small the amount, it will make a real difference to the care and training of guide dogs by helping us buy what we need to create a world-class facility.
Please visit the Guide Dogs website for information on what your donation would go towards.
The new purpose-built school replaces the charity’s existing Bolton training facility which has been in operation for nearly 50 years. With its state-of-the-art welfare facilities and outstanding training areas, it will ensure that trainee guide dogs are fully prepared for today’s busy streets and complex towns.
With this new world-class training environment, Guide Dogs will be able to train an increased number of happy, healthy, high-quality guide dogs to provide a life-transforming level of independence and confidence to thousands of blind and partially-sighted people across the .
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Guide Dogs gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25 per cent in Gift Aid, plus a 3 per cent supplement, are added to your donation.
Your support is very important to us and will make a difference to generations of guide dogs trained at our new school.
