Tesco refuse access with guide dog- BBC London

Within one week BBC News correspondent Sean Dilley was told he wasn't allowed to have his guide dog Sammy in two London Tesco stores.

Sean was born with congenital blindness, poor sight and lost all functional vision at the age of 14.

Guide Dogs’ research shows that 75% of assistance dog owners have experienced an access refusal at some point and 20% of those have been in supermarkets.

Sean said: "For somebody to say that I cannot come into a shop or that I have to leave because of a guide dog in 2022, it just feels the north side of unacceptable to me."

BBC London requested an interview with Tesco but they denied.
