Guide Dogs for the Blind Association

Did you know…?

• A guide dog can offer a unique, safe and effective way of getting about independently and confidently.
• You don’t need to have lost all your sight. Most guide dog owners have some vision
• You don’t have to be formally registered as blind or partially-sighted
• There are no age restrictions
• It costs just 50p to have a guide dog.
• All essential equipment and training is provided and we can also cover the cost of vet bills and dog food if people wish.
• No previous experience of keeping or caring for a dog is necessary
• It’s not just about improving your mobility. A guide dog and its owner exist as a partnership
