Came across your stall at the Driffield Show yesterday. A friend of mine died recently and asked for donations to your organisation amongst others instead of flowers. I was initially interested until I realised the woman talking to me was more interested in getting her quotas up, her words, and probably getting some sort of reward for recruiting my daughter, rather than helping guide dogs. It was a hot day and all the other dog related stalls and many of the others has bowls of water provided for dogs. Her colleague actually said to me "People have asked if we have water for their dog as they go round. Why should we? It's their dog not my responsibility." What a poor attitude for a dog based charity! Seems to me your organisation is more money orientated than charitable and i would be interested to know exactly how much of the donations its receives goes to towards providing dogs for blind people and how much lines the pockets of the committee , management etc. It was an uncomfortable experience talking to your very pushy saleswoman and made me sure I didn't want to donate.
