READ NOWGuide Dogs WA community fundraising co-ordinator Lauren Shepherd said she was grateful to the team at Specsavers and the generous support of their customers.
“Their donations will allow us to make a real and meaningful difference to the lives of people who require a Guide Dog to go about everyday life without difficulty,” she said.
Specsavers Mandurah Forum store co-owner Donna Cowain said the team were thrilled to give customers the opportunity to help give back to Guide Dogs WA through the Run for a Reason.
“The work Guide Dogs WA does is indispensable for people living with blindness or vision impairment,” she said.
“We will be putting all of our efforts in, both as we fundraise in the lead up, and as we run on the day.”
