[Visual Description: Susie Dent and Johanna sit on a park bench under a tree and chat to each other. Puppy in training, Peaches, sits on the floor in front of them. As they talk, clips of Johanna and Peaches playing together are shown. Peaches runs around the park. As Johanna describes the socialisation training, clips of puppy raisers and their pups at the Beatles Story Museum are shown. They explore the museum together. Cut to a puppy on a train platform and then stepping out of a train carriage onto the platform. The video then cuts back to Susie and Johanna talking on the bench, before more clips of Peaches' free running are shown. The video ends with Susie speaking directly to the camera.]

This week is Volunteers' Week, so we're celebrating all the hardworking people who volunteer their time to support Guide Dogs. 💛

[Visual Description: This video is made up of a montage of clips showing various Guide Dogs volunteering roles. The video opens with two volunteer fundraisers with dogs in training. One volunteer holds a fundraising bucket. It then cuts to a puppy raiser holding a black Labrador puppy, and then a fosterer puts a lead on a black Labrador dog-in-training. A Guide Dogs branded stall can be seen, and fundraisers smile and hold buckets to collect donations. Breeding dog volunteers interact with newborn puppies, and then some fundraisers host a tea party. Puppy raisers look after a puppy, and more clips of fundraisers with buckets are shown. A fosterer hands over their dog to a Guide Dogs staff member, and then puppy raisers play with their puppies.]
