My optician is donating £5 to Guide Dogs Northern Ireland for every complete eye test done on Friday, September 5th. They have multiple branches across Northern Ireland. Sweet. I’ll book my overdue eye exam in East Belfast for Friday if possible.

See https://www.mackeyopticians.com

I used to have a monthly payment for RNIB guide dogs. I must see if I can set something up for regular donations to Guide Dogs Northern Ireland.

Guide Dogs bring ‘Pat and Chat’ to the Quadrant this week

Shoppers in Swansea city centre will have the chance to meet some of Wales’ most remarkable working dogs when Guide Dogs Cymru sets up stall in the Quadrant Shopping Centre this Thursday and Friday (22–23 August).

From 10am to 4pm on both days, volunteers will be selling the charity’s latest merchandise and inviting visitors to stop for a “Pat and Chat” with guide dogs and puppies in training.

Among those attending will be Izzy James and her labradoodle Souly, who are marking two years as a qualified guide dog partnership. “Souly changed my life and pulled me out of depression,” said Izzy. “He’s given me confidence I never had, and the independence to go places I’d never been before. During the heatwave I had to go back to using a long cane, and it made me realise just how much easier he makes it for me to get around – not to mention how fast we walk.”

Kaypea, named by the Quadrant, is now a working guide dog in Gwent.

The Quadrant has been a long‑time supporter of Guide Dogs Cymru, with shoppers raising more than £30,000 for the charity since 2013. The centre even named a black Labrador puppy, Kaypea, who went on to qualify as a working guide dog in Gwent.

Ruth Evans, community fundraising development manager for Guide Dogs, said: “There is always great interest from shoppers in the Quadrant Centre and some have even joined us as volunteers. Swansea has a thriving and enthusiastic group of fundraisers, and our dogs love the attention.”

I have met two people with guide dogs, one on a transit train. Or course, I did not distract the dog, and people accepted their presence.

"The 45-year-old is Singapore’s only full-time guide dog mobility instructor, and she is training these dogs to one day lead a blind person safely to where he or she needs to go."

I ran the London #Marathon and raised £2275 for #GuideDogs for the Blind (a UK charity)!..

This was my second marathon, after a six year break of barely any running. Training started from the beginning, back in August last year. It was a hot day and I didn't really know what to do with the heat after training all winter. That was hard. The last mile, just wanting to stop but being determined to run the whole distance was also hard.

But the crowd on the day was sublime, so energetic and enthusiastic and it really kept me going and made it a fantastic experience. There were around 60,000 runners. It's a huge event.

Overall it feels like one of the best things I have ever done. Nobody asked me to do this, there was no necessity. I wanted to run London someday and I wanted to raise some money for this charity and for once in my life I got off my butt and did the thing.
