This we wanted to celebrate three new partnerships!
John, Chris and Susan are all first-time guide dog owners, and all qualified with their dogs last week.
International Guide Dog Day is all about the extraordinary guide dogs who empower people living with sight loss to lead independent, fulfilling lives.
Alongside enabling independence, guide dogs provide companionship, trust and emotional support, helping people with a vision impairment feel more confident in everyday life and more ready to take on new experiences.
