Trainee guide dogs and their trainers are enjoying free travel on public transport across Greater Nottingham, thanks to the Robin Hood Network.
Supported by Nottingham City Council, the Robin Hood Operator’s Group has donated 16 free travel passes to sight loss charity Guide Dogs, whose local team is based in Phoenix Business Park, Nottingham.
Guide Dog Trainers from the team are using the passes across the city and surrounding areas, to help familiarise the dogs they are training with on different modes of public transport such as buses and trams.
Since Guide Dog Trainers were given their free Pay As You Go cards in 2022, more than 600 journeys have been made in the city training future guide dogs. Read more here.
