Swindon Guide Dogs for the Blind would like to thank everyone who supported our charity during 2014.

We would not be able to help the partnerships we have in our area without your kindness and generosity.

We have twenty guide dogs in our area and it costs £5 a day to support just one of these partnerships.

The £5 pays for dog food and vet bills and comes to an annual cost of £36,500 just in this area alone.

We receive no government funding for our mobility services and rely solely upon donations and gifts in wills from the general public.

Our aim is to help people suffering with sight loss to lead a normal a life as possible whether it is through owning a guide dog or our My Guide service.

If you would like to hear more about Guide Dogs during 2015 and would like a talk to your school or community group please contact Alan Fletcher either by phone on 01793 827589 or email him at fletcas@sky.com We hope that you and your family have a very Merry Christmas and a happy and Prosperous New Year. Thank you all once again.
