Story
My name is Lucy Edwards and I am a blind YouTuber/student and activist. My goal is to make a change in this world through using my disability as a tool to prove to people you should never give up. I will never stop telling people about the work Guide Dogs do and how they have changed my life. I honestly believe that without my guide dog Olga I would not be here today. When I wake up every morning she is the one that reminds me that being blind is OK. She is the one that is always there when I feel like I cannot go on anymore because of my blindness. She proves to me that I can have a life that is mobile without my vision. Every day we tackle the outside world together and every day I am grateful for the work Guide Dogs UK does. In the last few months, in order to tackle my depression, I went on the British Blind Sport website and found Steve! We have been running together every Wednesday since and he is a really lovely guy. Our training plan starts in January and I am really excited to be running with him as my guide.
Our goal is to raise at least £2000 for this life changing charity. Bring on the 23rd April!
I will be doing a vlog of my experiences on my YouTube channel! Click the link below to keep up to date!
