Lincolnshire’s ‘My Sighted Guide’ Service

Volunteers Needed to grow the service across Lincolnshire – Full training, support and expenses are provided.

The Guide Dogs ‘My Sighted Guide’ service aims to match volunteers with people living with sight loss in their local community. The ‘partnership’ then go out together, often once a week, either for a social outing or for something more specific such as building confidence or practicing routes.

There are several clients within Lincolnshire who do not have any volunteers to match with them so we need your help.
