About the charity

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.
