Lillington bowlers bank cash for Guide Dogs for the Blind

Leamington Editorial 20th Apr, 2023   0

MEMBERS of Lillington Bowling Club were bowled over by their canine visitor.

The bowls club opened its outdoor season with a gala in support of Guide Dogs for the Blind on Sunday (April 16).

Two teams – President versus Chairman – competed over six rinks resulting in a narrow win for the President.

The gala was followed by a presentation by Derek and Anita from Guide Dogs for the Blind who explained the role of volunteers in training programmes and the many ways in which the charity is able to help blind and partially sighted people.




But the star of the show was undoubtedly Derek’s guide dog Zelda.

The event raised over £250 towards naming a guide dog puppy.
