Hi everyone!

Am Alex! I'm 25, and I am Visually Impaired. I live in the South East of England. I saw the advertise on tv and social media and thought I would give this forum a go as I am always looking for new friends and people I can chat too! I enjoy Musical theatre or any theatre shows! I also enjoy watching football and going to support my local team when I am able to. I am a 3 year Guide Dog Owner of 3+ years. I have a 5 year old Labrador cross retriever! 

I am hoping to say hi to some of you, and hopefully we can chat sometime!! :smiley:

    Ahh Wicked is one of my favourites @AlexRamzan! Have you seen Hamilton or Matilda the Musical? They are probably my top three. :)
