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.

Story

Hi I'm Ollie, I'm 8 years old, and I'm swapping my usual 5-mile bike rides for a massive challenge: cycling the 33 miles home from Grantham, along the canal!

I’m raising money for 'Guide Dogs' inspired by Terry and his dog Charlie, who used to visit my primary school. Charlie recently became unwell and now Terry has to rely on a white cane instead. I want to help ensure more people can benefit from the amazing support of a guide dog. I’ve been trying hard and training every weekend to hit my goal.

If you can spare a few pounds to help me reach my target, I’d be so grateful! Thank you :)

Here is some more information from the Guide dog 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.
