We have some availability for this program. Free to people with no means of support for therapy and who are experiencing mental health challenges. Great for parents - and carers!

Due to the generosity of our donors, we now have a new funding round for an additional 10 people in need of animal-assisted mental health support. We have also sent out links to those on the waiting list. This funding is only available for those who have no other financial means to get the help they need.

Thank you to all who donated or shared our fundraising campaign.
