The Friendly Club – Recent Events

Tuesday 13th November

A talk was be given by Alan Fletcher on “Guide dogs for the blind” He brought his dog Joy with him which he has had for over six years. He and his wife Shirley informed us how from the first steps of puppy selection to the training of the dogs and people who are recipients of a dog are carried out. It was very informative and we were made aware of the hard work the many volunteers do to make the whole system work. There is a high cost, covered mainly by donations, to reach this final achievement of a fully trained working dog.
