The Guide Dogs story started in 1931 with two British pioneers, Muriel Crooke and Rosamund Bond. These remarkable women organised the training of the first four British guide dogs from a humble lock up garage in Wallasey, Merseyside.
Today Guide Dogs is the world’s largest breeder and trainer of working dogs. And thanks to their dedicated staff and volunteers – 36,000 lives have been transformed through a guide dog partnership since 1931.
Brenda Weaver is a local guide dogs volunteer fundraiser and Puppy Raiser, and has organised an Autumn Fundraising Fayre in Shenfield tomorrow, Thursday. Full details below.
