Charity of the Year 2022 - Guide Dogs Chesterfield

Total raised for the year: £2,500

Many events happened through the year including bucket shaking in Chesterfield Town Centre, Snowdon Challenge and volunteering at a football match (Chesterfield FC).

We raised enough money to sponsor a dog called 'Honey'

Guide Dogs help people with sight loss live the life they choose.

Over the years we’ve developed a wide range of services with and without dogs to support people living with a vision impairment. Children and adults. Friends and family. Whoever you are, our expert staff, dedicated volunteers and life-changing dogs are here to help you live actively, independently, and well.

We’re a charity, almost entirely funded by donations, and we are the world’s largest assistance dog organisation. As world leaders in puppy socialisation and dog training, we’re the only organisation to breed and train guide dogs in the UK. We’re also the largest employer of specialists dedicated to helping children and young people overcome the challenges of sight loss.
