Ann Casey

Ann Casey is a pioneering advocate for individuals with visual impairments in Ireland, having been one of the first recipients of a guide dog from the Irish Guide Dogs organization in the late 1970s. Born with retinitis pigmentosa, she has since owned multiple guide dogs, including her current companion, Finlay. Casey's journey has significantly impacted her independence and quality of life, as she has championed the importance of guide dogs in enabling visually impaired people to navigate the world.
