I’ve been friends with Tracy & Pete for years, it all started with a certain chocolate Labrador!
Tracy and Pete have dedicated time, effort, tears and probably a bit of blood in raising two guide dog puppies, one of which who has gone on to become an amazing guide dog for someone. The other is still in training and I’ve had the absolute pleasure of meeting both of them. There’s really something that you can’t quite put into words when you meet a 12 week old puppy that has an incredible journey ahead of them and how much that puppy will make a difference to someone’s life. That is why I’m raising money for Guide Dogs.

In the UK today, almost two million people are living with sight loss and of those, around 180,000 rarely leave their homes alone. Many suffer from depression and struggle with feelings of isolation.Guide Dogs is here to help solve this problem. We provide individual support that overcomes the emotional and physical challenges faced by people living with sight loss.We work for a world where people with sight loss are never left out of life. We work for a world where blind people no longer feel invisible, where the quality of their eye sight is genuinely the only difference between them and the rest of society.A world with enough support to make the challenges of sight loss no barrier to fulfilling your needs and dreams. A world where being blind or partially sighted isn't what defines you.
