Welcome to the Association for the Blind of WA – Guide Dogs WA

Our Connections Project

Image of staff member consulting with clientThe Connections Project was a one year consultation initiative through which the Association sought a range of feedback and information from clients and members. Our goal was to identify how we could better connect with and engage people in consultations, service planning and giving feedback.

The Connections Project included a seven-month consultation phase which concluded in June 2010 and has resulted in new initiatives and planned changes which will increase opportunities for people to get involved in future planning and consultations.

The Executive Summary of the Connections Project Final Report is now available for download:

Consultation Contact Register

This register is still in the development stage and we will promote it further when it's complete. You will be able to join the register and provide your contact details, nominating specific topics or issues of interest to you and ways that you would prefer to get involved. We will then be able to contact you when opportunities arise that are relevant to your chosen areas of interest.
