Thank you for coming onto our page.

First here is a bit about myself, my name is Cheryl I am 35 years old and I am registered blind/severely sight impaired.

Five years ago now I finally plucked up the courage to sign up for my first guide dog. In 2020 I finally got the call about maybe having found a match. (He is a handsome Golden Retriever called Flynn but most people know him as Flynn the Floof, or in the gym he is Flynn le Flirty floof). So not long after that phone call training started and oh my gosh how my life has changed since then. Before Flynn I could/would not leave the house without someone being with me, I didnt even have the confidence to ask for help from anyone. Now I go out on my own with Flynn, I attend a gym, I can go to shops when ever I need to go. Not only has he helped with the practical side he has given me a whole new confidence I never had before.

So with saying that below is some numbers about how much each thing about a guide dog can cost. However Guide dogs is purely ran on donations so please even if its only a couple of pounds could you please help me on raising money to help this charity out.

Thank you so much!!
