I have been a supporter or the guide dogs for a number of years for a number or reasons. One is I always wanted a dog and did not have the time. So I support one for someone that may need one but now we have our little Betsy and I still support the guide dogs as it’s important to me because of the other reasons. I have a coffee shop in malton and we have a lady comes in regularly with her guide dog I find it’s incredible how this beautiful animal can do it she get her all over malton and keeps her safe I’m in ore just watching it happen. But if you can help in a little way hear are some facts to help you decide every penny helps.

Every day, 250 more people join the 2 million already living with sight loss. This number is set to double by 2050, which is why our work is more important than ever before, however, we can only continue our life-changing work, such as our guide and buddy dog services, mobility training, education support, sighted guides and much more with your support.

"Having a guide dog is a life-changing experience and I'm phenomenally grateful to Guide Dogs for enabling me to be more independent" - Priya, guide dog owner.
