Thank you to everyone who attended our latest Southern Information Session
Posted 9 years ago in the Events, Information sessions categories
We hope everyone enjoyed our latest Information Session at our Southern Centre.
Guests enjoyed a presentation about our work at Canine Partners, before watching demo dog Hamlet carry out some of the tasks our canine partners do for their partners every day including opening and closing a door, fetching a crutch, removing a hat, gloves, jacket, shoes and socks from his demo handler Sarah- and he even unloaded our washing machine!
Following this, one of our partners Margie Woodward spoke about how much of a difference her canine partner Molly has made to her life, enabling her to be more independent and confident.
Attendees were able to browse the numerous products from our shop, purchase their Christmas gifts and enjoy a cup of tea and a biscuit before setting off home.
Many thanks to everyone who attended and our amazing team of volunteers who helped on the day.
“I volunteer for Canine Partners because I love dogs and I want to use my time to help other people and make a difference to people with disabilities. My friend William and my husband Bob both help with the car park at Information Sessions too, so we make quite a team.”
