Mrs. Alison Flack visited Ashton recently to speak to students in Ms. Power’s C.S.P.E. class about the role of Guide Dogs in the family, and wider community.  Students were spell-bound when they saw the dog completing various commands from Mrs. Flack. Visually impaired students and others were impressed with the impact a Guide Dog can have for an individual in relation to their independence levels. This visit was eagerly anticipated by students, and thankfully the ever-patient Guide Dog took it all in his stride!. A cheque from the proceeds of a cake sale at Ashton was presented to Mrs. Flack by the students, which Mrs. Flack accepted on behalf of the Irish Guide Dogs.
