When most people think of us, they think of Guide Dogs. But a Guide Dog is just one of the ways in which we support people who are blind or vision impaired.
At Guide Dogs NSW/ACT we provide assistance to anyone with vision loss, no matter what your age or level of vision. You certainly don’t have to be totally blind, or want a Guide Dog to receive our services.
While training Guide Dogs is an important part of our work, Guide Dogs NSW/ACT also provides a variety of supports to people who are blind or vision impaired that increase independence, minimise the impact of vision loss and build confidence for further education, employment and social participation.
Our services include:
Training people to use canes
Canines and electronic aids to improve their mobility and thus their independence and quality of life
Training companion dogs for children and adults who are disabled or disadvantaged owing to age, isolation or ill health
