Story

Francesca, one of our Optometrists, fostered a guide dog while in training last year and Frost Borneo Opticians will continue to raise money for this worthy cause.

We are joining the thousands of people up and down the country taking part in the annual Make Every Cuppa Count for Guide Dogs by bringing everyone together for tea, coffee and cake on Friday 19th April.

Everyone is invited to pop in and have a cup of tea and a delicious cake with us to raise money for the Guide Dogs.

Today, Guide Dogs leads the world in breeding and training working dogs, creating unique and carefully matched partnerships that provide life changing support. Guide Dogs is working to give more people with sight loss the confidence and skills they need to live the life they choose.

Sophie Crompton, Guide Dogs Make Every Cuppa Count spokesperson: “We are so very grateful to all the individuals, groups and organisations who support us by hosting a Make Every Cuppa Count in April. Every day 250 more people join the 2 million already living with sight loss and this number is set to double by 2050. As sight loss increases, our expert staff, volunteers and life-changing dogs will be there to support them. To help us continue this support, please get involved and host your own tea party, coffee morning or bake sale. What a great excuse to get together over a cuppa and cake!”.

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.
