About the Organisation
When someone loses their sight, Guide Dogs Northern Ireland is there to make sure they don’t lose their freedom as well.
We want to change the way that sight loss affects people’s lives. To do this, we help everyone with sight loss – and their families – through life-changing mobility services to adults, children and young people with sight loss throughout NI.
We also work to break down barriers by campaigning alongside people living with sight loss to ensure that they can get out and about on their own terms.
So if you’d like to know more about our services, or how you can help make a difference by volunteering, fundraising, donating or campaigning, we’d love to hear from you.
By getting involved, you can be a life-changer.
