Group's fundraising success

Over £400 has been raised by a West Lothian charity that helps provide people with guide dogs.

West Lothian Concise Group were back out fundraising on Sunday, August 15 at The Festival Of Motoring held at Ingliston.

A spokesperson for the charity said: “Like all charities, 2020 had a huge impact on our fundraising activities but thankfully many of our groups are getting back to doing what we love best.

“There are 17,000 passionate, hard-working Guide Dog volunteers across the UK, and our group were delighted to have been given the opportunity to engage with the public at the event.

“It was great to see so many people enjoying themselves. Between tombola, merchandise and donations, we raised over £400.

“Needless to say our group members were delighted to meet up once again with our wonderful dogs - including retired/withdrawn and a guide dog.”

Every hour someone in the UK starts to lose their sight. The charity helps to empower people with visual impairment and improve their lives.

The donations received help to do this - please go to www.justgiving.com/fundraising/westlothianconcisegroup.
