Thanks to Gawler community

THE Gawler Auxiliary of See Differently (Royal Society for the Blind) would like to thank members of the community who have generously supported their fundraising this year, most recently at the Village Fair.

In the lead-up to the New Year, the group is again selling their large format calendars.

Over the years these calendars have sold extremely well as they are specially designed with large print, a feature much appreciated, particularly by older members of the community.

This year the calendars have been expanded to include a different high-quality photo of a guide or assistance dog each month, ensuring a year-round display of Labrador-cuteness.

Calendars are $20 each, with all proceeds returned to the northern region.

They can be purchased by calling 0429 064 381.

Margaret Crohn, Gawler
