Dear EOE readers

Pets As Therapy is a national charity founded in 1983.

We enhance health and wellbeing in the community through the visits of trusted volunteers with their behaviourally assessed animals. We provide a visiting service in hospitals, hospices, nursing and care homes, special needs schools and a variety of other venues all across the UK.

Our therapeutic visits:
• Enhance lives in our communities by providing companionship and friendship and
helps to tackle loneliness.

• Improves the lives of people suffering from debilitating mental and physical health conditions and illnesses such as strokes and dementia by including animal-assisted interventions as part of a holistic approach to treatment.

• Improves literacy in children by developing their confidence, interest and enjoyment in reading.
