Raising money for

Pets As Therapy

Charity Registration No. 1112194 (England & Wales) - SCO38910 (Scotland)

Pets As Therapy is national charity and is unique in that it provides temperament assessed/vaccinated PAT Dogs and PAT Cats with registered volunteers to hospitals, hospices, residential care homes, day centres, special needs schools and many other establishments, providing comfort, companionship and therapy.

There are approximately 4,500 PAT Dogs and 108 PAT Cats bringing benefit to more than 130,000 people of all ages every single week throughout the UK.

The Charity is becoming increasingly involved in structured Animal Assisted Therapy (AAT) interventions, for example, through referral by Clinical Psychologists working with dog phobic children and with Occupational Therapists in the rehabilitation of stroke victims.

Our registered volunteers and their P.A.T. Dogs and P.A.T. Cats make a difference to over 6.75 million people every year.

For more details on the work of this wonderful charity or if you are interested in finding out how you can apply to register your dog/cat please visit www.petsastherapy.org

If you would like to see the difference P.A.T. Dogs and P.A.T. Cats make to those they visit please watch the Pets As Therapy film www.petsastherapy.org/media

My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This is by no means a huge event we are taking on, but it is to raise money for a charity that makes a real difference to peoples lives. Rufus is a PAT ( Pets as Therapy ) dog and visits a residential care home each weekend to brighten their day and provide a welcome distraction from their illness disabilities, with happy associations of their home comforts.

Our fundraising will enable more animals and their owners to go through the assessments and place them with hospitals, hospices, special needs schools and similar that would benefit from a regular visit from a friendly dog or cat.

Thanks for your support
