Dogs For The Disabled

Charity Registration No. 1092960

Dogs for the Disabled trains dogs to help disabled people live life more independently. Each dog is trained in practical tasks such as opening and closing doors, helping a person undress, even emptying the washing machine. In addition they provide confidence, companionship and break down barriers to the outside world.

My story

Well, it's confirmed. We have met the minimum needed, paid in our contribution, had the jabs (urgh!!!!!) and are now trying to lose weight and get fit. We are going to Peru......

Thanks to everyone who has sponsored us online or offline, bought raffle tickets or bid for prizes in our auctions.

But it's not stopping, so please continue to give as much as you can to help such a wonderful charity.

In 2006 we raised over £15,000 for Cancerbackup by walking 100km of the Great Wall of China.

In 2009, we will be walking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu in Peru, raising money for Dogs for the Disabled.

Dogs for the Disabled creates life-changing partnerships by training assistance dogs to help disabled people lead a fuller, more independent life. Every assistance dog trained by the charity offers practical help to the people they support. Their work with physically disabled adults opens doors to independence, giving a new sense of confidence and freedom, often long forgotten.

Our aim, to raise as much as possible, hopefully even more than before, so please, help us to raise money for such a worthwhile cause as all of the money you donate will go straight to Dogs for the Disabled.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Dogs For The Disabled gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

And congratulations to everyone who won one of 15 bottles of wine in our raffle. Enjoy.
