Volunteers, puppy parents, partners with disabilities and their assistance dogs and staff gathered at the Perthshire home of Trustee Lady Suzetta Rankin to acknowledge the success of the Scottish branch of our Charity.

Dale Gormley, Regional Fundraiser in Scotland, said: “It was a fantastic opportunity for everyone involved with Canine Partners in Scotland to meet, chat, relax and get to know each other in the Charity’s 25^th anniversary year. It was a lovely sunny day and everyone had a lovely time, both two and four legged friends!”

Canine Partners dogs have currently changed the lives of 20 people in Scotland: restoring independence, giving family members peace of mind, allowing their disabled partners to return to work and even saving lives by responding in emergencies.
