We breed and train guide dogs to give blind people freedom and mobility

Story

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.

Team Bruce and Wright, ‘guided’ by Ambassador Guide Dog Glenise (age 3) will be starting to walk the Anglesey Coastal Path, approx 120 miles, on Saturday 20 April. Glenise was withdrawn from training due to body sensitivity towards the harness, but now regularly raises funds with us to help train Guide Dog pups.

We’d love to make in total an average of £10 per mile, and if we could achieve £100 per mile that would be a quarter of the way towards providing one Lifechanger Guide Dog. Every donation, large or small, is really welcome.

Thank you so much. Your support is very appreciated.

Gill, Sue and Glenise

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.
