A brief description about my guide dog, biscuit. My wee star. @guidedogsni dogs

A wee video showing my guide dog, biscuit, getting onto an electric bus in Belfast.

@CTAUK1 @deptinfra @LizKimminsSF This didn’t happen to me, but it happened to a friend of mine who tried to use community transport in her local area with her first guide dog and was refused. I will talk to her and see if she wants to take it further.

We're pleased to see increased funding for community transport in Northern Ireland — a vital lifeline for rural and isolated communities. This investment recognises the sector’s impact in tackling isolation and promoting inclusion @deptinfra @LizKimminsSF infrastructure-ni.gov.uk/news/infrastru…

@CTAUK1 @deptinfra @LizKimminsSF If you’re partly or fully funded by the govt, you should be held to the same equality rights & DDA as every other organisation. You shouldn’t use the fact that you are run by volunteers as a right to refuse a legitimate service to somebody who is disabled with a service dog.

@joanne_sansome @RobbieButlerMLA @iamfifig Biscuit is a girl. LOL.

@blindspringbok @RobbieButlerMLA @iamfifig *or him I can’t remember Biscuits gender 🤭🤣

@guidedogsni A wee insight into a walk with GD Biscuit.

Took Guide dog biscuit and a good friend to Stormont estate this afternoon for a good run. The humans loved the walk and guide dog biscuit loved the run through the estate. Here’s a video of a beautiful day in Belfast looking out across the city from Stormont.
