Freedom and independence mean different things to different people, but to a visually impaired person it means largely the ability to go where they like, when they like; to be able to travel to work safely on a daily basis, go shopping unaided,deposit their salary at the bank, visit friends or go to church.
It is not easy to comprehend the joy that a guide dog can bring into a visually person’s life, but if you look at some of the testimonials on the site they will give you an inkling.

On this site you will find a great deal of information about the Association, the work we do, news of our activities as well as an indication as to how you can help us to continue with our work. As an Association we have no funding other than what we receive from private and corporate donors. Any and all donations are therefore very much appreciated.So please visit our fundriaisng section and see if you are able to assist us with these projects.

We encourage our supporters to consider electronic transfers or deposits when making a donation as we are experiencing difficulties in terms of the postal service where cheques have not reached the association. We are aware of the situation and are investigating the matter. Should any cheques that you have kindly sent us not have gone through your bank account then kindly contact our head offfice and notify us.

Should you have any further specific questions or ideas as to how you might be able to assist us in our work please do not hesitate to contact me.
