Richard Leaman is to step down as CEO of Guide Dogs, without an explanation. Peter talked to Rose Hewitt, Chair of COGDO, the Circle of Guide Dog Owners, who said that the members she's spoken to, want the charity to return to providing its core function of providing guide dogs for blind people.
Ffion Miles is about to go on a trip to Australia and tells Peter about the planning involved. Ffion has relied heavily on the internet and social media to connect with people and organisations who can help her.
During his recent visit to Brazil, Peter met Marcos Lima who collects miniature models of famous landmarks and buildings from around the world.
