Story
Dear friends,
When I was ten years old I was diagnosed with retinitis pigmentosa and told that I would lose my vision by the age of 19. I have been fortunate enough to defy those odds but there are many challenges to living with visual impairment. I am on a quest to help others who live with visual challenges and so Elizabeth and I will be doing the London Landmarks Half Marathon on April 6th 2025 to raise some funds for Guide Dogs UK. Please join in and support us! No contribution is too small!
Thank you advance for your support!
xx

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.
With your support, we can help children and adults to live actively, independently, and well.
What your donations can buy:
£125 could buy a starter kit for a new guide dog owner, containing everything they need to start life with their new dog.
£451 could provide the parents of a child with a vision impairment with ten sessions of support.
£1000 could pay for an entire family to attend our Family weekend, where they can access specialist support and meet other families in similar situations.
Guide Dogs wouldn't be here without you. Our life-changing services depend on donations so thank you for choosing to support us.
