Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit Wagging Tails JustGiving page in support of Guide Dogs. Your support will help Guide Dogs provide mobility and freedom to blind and partially sighted people and also campaign for the rights of people with visual impairment, educate the public about eye care and fund eye disease research. Wagging Tails are proud supporters of Guide Dogs and throughout 2012 will be raising money in aid of this charity.
