August: Andrew :  Guide Dogs NSW & ACT

 

What a great impression was made by Andrew as the speaker at the August Windsor Probus meeting. The
courage exhibited by Andrew in negotiating rail travel from Narwee to Windsor, a station unfamiliar to him, is so admirable! 
Andrew’s talk was very interesting for the members who were fully engaged and had a multitude of questions for him. Andrew answered them with candour. 
We heard some of Andrew’s personal story as well as information about Guide Dogs NSW and ACT. The session gave a wealth of information and was really educational. Andrew’s session generated a great buzz of excitement such as is not often heard after a speaker session. He was interesting and his session was a great hit!
