Altomed is thrilled to announce the sponsorship of its 2nd The Guide Dogs for the Blind Association puppy Geordie! Named in tribute to Altomed’s North East roots, Geordie is a striking black German Shepherd, confident, clever, and full of character. His unique breed makes him extra special within the Guide Dogs community.

Geordie follows in the pawprints of Altomed’s first sponsored puppy, Alan, and joins a proud family of Guide Dogs supported by sister company MID-OPTIC LIMITED, including Cassie, Harley, Finley, Dexter, Belle, Barley, Mia, Tilly, Willow, and Lola.

Funds for Geordie’s sponsorship were raised through Altomed’s Volk Optical Inc. lens promotion whereby they donate £10 to Guide Dogs for every lens purchased* (see website for full T&Cs)

The team at Altomed would like to extend a big thank you to all its Volk lens customers and encourage those considering a purchase to stop by our dedicated Volk lens webshop or call our expert team on 0191 519 0111.

Don't forget In addition to the £10 Guide Dogs donation, Altomed also offers free personal engraving, with the option to include the officially endorsed Guide Dogs paw print, so you can proudly show your support #MyGuideDogVolkLens.

Keep an eye out for more updates on Geordie’s journey as he grows and trains to become a life changing companion.
