Guide Dogs Social Happy Hour
Following the success of our first Social Happy Hour group meeting in April, we invite Guide Dogs clients past, present and future, to join our upcoming sessions via Zoom.
Zoom is fully accessible and can be used on your phone, computer or tablet from the comfort of your own home.
Each meeting has a different theme. Some are more educational and others are just for fun, but every session is engaging and a great way to stay connected in a relaxed atmosphere. Each session will run for 45 – 60 minutes and will be facilitated by a Guide Dogs staff member.
There are three sessions coming up. If you would like help joining a session, please contact Your Support Line on 1800 757 738. Registrations are essential.
