Make content about: Alex campaigns for assistance dogs
Alex volunteers and reviews theatre alongside his assistance dog Rosie, but constant access refusals threaten his independence.
This story
Born with an eye condition that left him blind in one eye and losing vision in the other, Alex relies on his assistance dog Rosie to get out and about. Rosie helps him visit patients as a hospital volunteer and travel to theatre shows he reviews, but frequent refusals from taxis and venues have made leaving the house stressful. Alex now campaigns to raise awareness of assistance dogs and the legal rights of disabled people.
