White Cane Community Day by Guide Dogs Singapore Ltd (GDS) comes to
Toa Payoh Hub Atrium this year! Join us on 8 September (Saturday) from
10.30am - 8.30pm to meet guide dogs, celebrate the abilities and
successes of people with visual impairment and have fun with us! This
year's event sees the introduction of more activities like white cane
and guide dog demonstrations. Other highlights include exciting
experiential activities, such as simulated activities of daily living,
obstacle course blindfold walks, free eye check-ups, a bouncing castle
and carnival-style games.
The event is free and open to the public. Participants stand the
chance to receive a goodie bag and win lucky draw prizes throughout
the day upon completion of certain games stations (while stocks last).
