Default Fundraising for Guide Dogs for the Blind

I'm don't usually use this forum for trying to get sponsored but I thought I'd give it a go for once.

Next Tuesday 21 September I will be testing out my skills as a driving instructor to the highest degree. I will be attempting to teach people to drive around a racetrack (Three Sisters in Wigan to be precise). "Sounds straight forward enough" I hear you thinking, "what's the catch?".

The catch is that the students will all be either blind or partially sighted.

As per the title, all sponsorship monies will be going to Guide Dogs for the Blind - a very worthy charity that does fantastic work.

So, if you're reading this and can spare a couple of quid, I would very much appreciate it (link in signature).

ithankyou

Another bump.

I already do loads for them and RNIB. Grandma went blind in her late 90's and they were fantastic.

I was amazed at how much these people can improve the daily lives of blind and partially sighted people. If you have 5 mins to spare Google either or both and have a read of what they do.
