Time for a commercial message from the charity guide dogs.

Now, young Trish, when you hear guide dogs, you probably picture those brilliant dogs

helping people with sight loss navigate the world.

But did you know?

The charity guide dogs does so much more.

Actually, I do know about the lovely charity guide dogs because it's the world's largest

assistant dog organisation and they recognise that sight

loss can happen at any stage of life and one size doesn't fit all when it comes to supporting

those going through this so guide dogs help people throughout their lives from helping babies

explore their surroundings children reading alongside their friends and adults living independently

with confidence.

Indeed they do. Guide dogs help with everything from white cane skills to life-changing tech advice.

They give people the tools not just to manage but to thrive.

And here's the thing. Guide dogs is something we can all be part of, whether it's volunteering,

fundraising or even sponsoring a guide dog puppy. There are so many ways to get everything. The guide dogs is something we can all be part of, whether it's volunteering, fundraising,

or even sponsoring a guide dog puppy.

There are so many ways to get involved.

There are.

And if you, our lovely listeners, want to find out more about guide dogs, life-changing

services, or how you can support their incredible work, go to their website, guidedogs.org.uk.
