Raising money for

The Guide Dogs for the Blind Association

Charity Registration No. in England and Wales 209617 and Scotland SC038979

The ability to get around is vital in order to live a full life yet thousands of blind and partially-sighted people never leave home alone. We empower visually-impaired people to live their lives how they want to.

We breed and train guide dogs which provide life changing mobility and there are currently 4,500 working guide dog partnerships in the UK. Guide dog owners only have to pay a nominal 50p for their dog to ensure no-one is prevented from having one due to lack of funds but the full lifetime cost of a guide dog from birth to retirement is £49,800. We rely on the support of the public to fund our services.

We also provide other mobility services such as rehabilitation and white cane training as well as campaign passionately to break down barriers – both physical and legal – to enable blind and partially-sighted people to get around on their own.

My story

Update: 12 March:

FINISHED!

Post race report is available if you'd care to read it - email me.

The £ is now coming in and a special thanks to John's Parent's Zóe and Malcolm who today kindly sent GD4tB a cheque for a whopping £50!

Also thanks to Julie's parents for their cheque, and locally, Geraldine's £10, Don & Christine and Doreen have added some £7 cash collectively.

Thanks everyone!

Tim

ps- I'm looking at the http://www.mtb-marathon.co.uk/ series and having a crack at the 100km route in Ruthin (Wales) 24 - 25th May 2008. Don't worry - no one will be asked to dip into their pockets again this year but I'll keep updating the Mountain Bike Training Diary blog though, http://www.dogsloweverywhere.blogspot.com/
