Five Ways
You Can Help Guide Dogs
This week, Guide Dogs have published an interesting article called, 'Five
ways you can help Guide Dogs
which can be seen below.
It's a new year and there are lots of fantastic ways you can help Guide
Dogs in 2014. So forget those dreary New Year's resolutions, step out of
the gym, eat that Mars bar, but make 2014 the year you help us change
the lives of people with sight loss. Here’'s how you can help:
Be adventurous - Whether you are looking
for a weekend of team building, the chance to meet new people and share
similar experiences or just an excuse to have a weekend away in the
stunning Lake District, the
Coniston Adventure Team Challenge
could be the event for you.
You will also celebrate together with a
night of food, live music and entertainment. What’'s not to love?
Take action - Sight loss is a fact of
life for many thousands of people in the UK. We’'re fighting alongside
them for the rights that most sighted people take for granted.
If you want to help
Guide Dogs' campaigning
work,
Join our e-campaigner mailing list
and
be kept up to date with all the latest campaigns news and actions every
few months.
Join in - Do you want to get fit, lose
weight, find a new hobby or meet new people as well as being part of
something special and making a difference? Why not
volunteer for Guide Dogs?
Becoming a volunteer is a great way to socialise, use your skills and
really make a difference. At
Guide Dogs there are over
50 different volunteering roles to choose from.
Help out - Can you spare a few hours a
week to help someone with sight loss near you get back on the road to
confidence and freedom? We have been providing life-changing guide dogs
for more than 80 years, but our new
My Guide
service is a fantastic way to help someone with sight loss get out and
about.
Stand Out -
Guide Dogs Week 2013 was
the best yet, with thousands of people standing out with our hi-viz
theme. Whether it’'s fire walking, football , fashion shows, cocktails
or cakes, we need even more of you to Stand Out for
Guide Dogs, 4-12 October
2014.
