Bring your pet along to our residential care home to meet residents in care, they will enjoy patting and chatting with you about your treasured companion. See what a difference your furry friend can make!

As you're bringing your pet into a care environment with frail and elderly residents, we ask that your pet is:

• Calm and gentle in nature
• Up-to-date with vaccinations and treatment of worms and fleas
• Nails should be short and blunt. Freshly cut nails can be sharp if not filed down.
• Dogs should be kept on a lead always.

Your impact

Volunteering as a social visitor can be a rewarding experience, both for the person you visit as well as yourself. Regular visits from volunteers can help to improve quality of life and help people feel less isolated
