Animal Assisted Therapy
Animal assisted therapy is not a treatment in itself, but an aid in treatment. The aim of this project is to give those that undergo Stress related Therapy an opportunity to interact with animals by looking after them and learning about rare and endangered breeds. And an opportunity for the group to bring in funds from the sale of eggs and bacon. if you know anyone that might need support, please send a confidential message to the email address below or contact:
