We need your support to help us continue in our mission: to improve mental wellbeing, reduce social isolation and promote a sense of purpose, achievement and community amongst vulnerable individuals through the power of the human-animal bond.

Like many small nonprofit organisations, Noah's A.R.T. has been hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic. Unable to run any services throughout the lockdown and beyond, we have had no income. However, we have continued to care for our much-loved therapy animals, pay all our costs, and have had to invest in making our centre COVID-secure. We are a small organisation with limited reserves, so this has had a huge impact on us.

The only way we can re-open and run our services sustainably is if we expand the space we have available to allow adequate social distancing. We aim to build three huts in the grounds of the community centre where we are based - one large therapy space and two smaller workshops, where our staff, volunteers and clients will be able to work, learn and engage with us safely.

Any amount you can spare will be hugely appreciated, and will help ensure Noah's A.R.T. can continue serving both vulnerable people and animals into the future. Thank you.
