Story

I am registered blind after having fluid on the brain and a stroke from surgery 

I became more withdrawn and totally dependent on others. 

Then I applied to guide dogs and got my wonderful Guide dog Emily. Who has changed my life in the best way  possible 

She has giving me freedom and independence and love and companionship, she allows me to get to doctors and  shop and walk and get out and about to church etc withou having to have a carer there all the time.

She is my eyes and independence and freedom .

Please help us by sponsoring Emily to swim I can not swim as for health reasons but my wonderful Emily adores swimming and gets so excited in going .

So please help people like myself have a wonderful Guide dog like Emily by sponsoring Emily .

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.
