A personal charity for Condy Mathias as a member of our staff has a Guide Dog in the family. Angus, pictured above, made a huge difference to the life of his owner allowing him the freedom to get out into the world without being fully reliant on others. Sadly Angus' owner passed away recently but Angus will continue on as an Ambassador Dog for Guide Dogs.

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.
