News Information

Santa arrives at Irish Guide Dogs HQ in style...
Date: Monday 05 December, 2011
News Summary:
Santa was delighted to be welcomed by so many happy faces yesterday afternoon when he and Mrs Clause arrived at our National Headquarters and Training Centre in Cork for their annual visit.
News Content:

We would like to thank everyone who attended and volunteered! It was a very special day, especially for all the boys and girls! We would especially like to thank Santa and his helpers for taking time out of their busy schedule to visit us and to bring each child a present.

In fact, due to popular demand, Santa will be back for another visit this coming Sunday, December 11th, from 1.30pm – 4pm.

Here are some photographs taken at the event. It was a fantastic afternoon that included tours of our facility, live entertainment and kids activities for the little ones!

Christmas Trees on sale now at our HQ:

We're selling Christmas trees and hand crafted centre pieces and wreaths every day at our Headquarters in Cork. What's more is that we'll also be open for the next two weekends from 10am to 5:30pm so if you haven't got your tree as yet, we're sure to have the perfect one for you! We'd welcome your support!

Special Craft Day: Saturday, December 10th

Next Saturday, December 10th, we have a special craft market starting at 12pm and of course, as mentioned above, Santa will make another appearance on Sunday from 1:30 to 4pm. You can also enjoy a tour of our Kennels and meet some of our puppies in training.

Thank you to everyone who attended and helped to make SANTA's visit such a special occasion!
