On this episode of the Seeing Eye Dogs Show Harriet is joined by two guests for a bit of a special graduation episode. On Wednesday September 18 we celebrated 42 graduated client and Seeing Eye Dogs teams who graduated in the 2023/2024 financial year including three graduates from our Youth Program.

The in-person celebrations took place at Kensington Town Hall, at our Vision Australia Parramatta office in NSW hosted by instructors Luca and Mikaela, and in our Perth office hosted by instructor Matt Wood. We also had graduates attending online.

We're joined by Nemoy Malcolm, graduate with Seeing Eye Dog Benji and Emcee o the event to talk about the graduation event, the speakers and the importance of us celebrating graduation together.

And Jasmine Tevelein is back on the show. Earlier this year, she joined us on the show an ambassador for our International Guide Dog Day Giving day. Now she's graduated with Mikey and has returned to talk to us about the Youth Program and her story and experiences as a handler.
