Badminton horse trails with Guide Dogs

I have just started as a Volunteer for the charity ‘Guide Dogs’. I first started to be interested in guide dogs this year at a Burn’s night event they had organised. It was there I realised what a fantastic charity it was and the massive help they are to so many in the UK. As a fundraiser you get to attend local events to help with fundraising, as well as organising your own events, it’s a great opportunity to meet a variety of people and do something great for others in your spare time. This weekend I was lucky enough to go to Badminton Horse Trials with the guide dogs. It was a really great day, here's a little sneak peek...











When we weren’t fundraising – lunch time – we took a look around at what Badminton had to offer, they had so many great stalls and of course a food hall. I may have grabbed a treat or two to keep me going J We were so lucky to have such a great turnout of Guide dog employees and volunteers, I’m really happy that one of my best friends got me into the organisation, plus did I mention I got to spend the day with more than 10 puppies and retired guide dogs <3
