Story

The Diafora running team are back for another year, with three new runners! The excitement in the office is building once again as last year there was just seconds between the Diafora winner Tom and second place Rob. Rob is determined to beat Tom this year!

Our chosen charity this year is Guide Dogs for the Blind, this charity was chosen as it’s close to the heart of one of our consultants and we would as a team like to make a difference, if only a small difference, to this wonderful charity.

Almost two million people in the UK are living with sight loss that has a significant impact on their daily lives. Of those, around 180,000 rarely leave their homes alone and lead lonely, isolated lives. Guide Dogs works for a world where people with sight loss are never left out of life, for a world where being blind or partially sighted is not what defines you. A world with enough support to make the challenges of sight loss no barrier to fulfilling hopes and dreams.

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.
