Volunteer and make a difference
Join thousands of Guide Dogs volunteers helping people with sight loss live independently. However you choose to help, you’ll make a lasting difference.
Guide Dogs is one of the UK’s leading sight loss charities. We couldn’t continue our vital work without your generous donations and our amazing volunteers.
Every day 250 people start to lose their sight in the UK. When someone loses their sight, we're here to make sure they don't lose their freedom as well.

Ready, set, Fund Race
