We are Guide Dogs. And we’re here to help people with sight loss live the life they choose.
We rely on our brilliant volunteers who give their time to help our charity in so many ways. There are many great volunteering opportunities to get involved in, even an hour makes a big difference.
We recognise the extraordinary efforts of all of our volunteers and we're really proud to have achieved the Investing in Volunteers accreditation for good practice in volunteer management.
Together, we can help people affected by sight loss live their lives to the full.
We provide a range of services so that we can be as person-centred as possible. These include:
CustomEyes books, Assistive technology and grants, Sensory equipment and grants, Family events, Education support, Family support, Mobility training, Guide dogs, Buddy dogs, My Sighted Guide service, Campaigning and Policy work, Advice/Information line.
As we are mainly funded through private and corporate donations, we carry out a range of fundraising activities to enable us to meet our objectives.
Having recently released a new strategy to expand our reach and provide services to twice as many people living with sight loss, we are looking to expand on the amount of volunteers we have to help us achieve those goals.
