information about the Guide Dogs range of services, either for

themselves or a family member or friend, this informal setting is

ideal to ask any questions or simply take a few leaflets.

The information stand will be there every 3rd Tuesday of the month

starting on February 15th and continuing on

Tuesday 15th March

> Tuesday 19th April

> Wednesday 18th May
