You can support this year’s Guide Dogs Puppy Appeal by fundraising any day this October, any way you like. There are so many fun ways you can get involved, either with your friends and family, colleagues, school, community, or on your own.
We might not all know how to train a puppy to become a life-changing guide dog, but everyone can help play a part by supporting the Guide Dogs Puppy Appeal. Find out how you can support us as an individual or workplace or get involved as nursery, school or youth group.
Every year around 1,350 puppies start their journey to become a guide dog. The guide dog service receives no government funding, we rely on donations to continue our life-changing work. Just £100 could buy a training school kit, essential to help every pup on their journey to becoming a qualified guide dog. We need your help to turn these pups into life-changing guide dog partnerships. We can’t do this alone.
Whether you’re fundraising solo or teaming up with your colleagues, you might already have a plan, but here’s a few of our favourites:
The Guide Dogs Puppy Appeal is a fantastic way for nurseries, primary schools, secondary schools, and youth groups to get involved in learning about our amazing pups and helping them become the life-changers of tomorrow.
