We’re thrilled to share the impact of our £138,600 grant to Young Gloucestershire!
In the second year of delivery, the Animal-Assisted Youth Work Programme has supported 68 young people, helping them build confidence, manage anxiety, and even gain a Level 1 Pet Care qualification.
The charity shared the following with us:
“A young person, M, 16 years old, was referred to our programme after experiencing ongoing low mood, low confidence, and high levels of anxiety. She also spoke about struggling with self-esteem and self-care.
The first couple of sessions focused on spending time with Maisie the dog in a calm and relaxed environment. M responded positively to Maisie’s playful and gentle nature, and she soon began joining in with teaching Maisie tricks. Through this activity, M started to relax and smile more, which led to more open conversation.
In the final session, M shared that she felt ready to explore counselling. The youth worker completed an internal referral to YG’s counselling programme, which is something M had previously felt too anxious to access. She said the animal-assisted programme helped her feel more confident talking to professionals and that she now felt ready to continue working on herself with the right support around her."
Together, we’re making a difference 💚

We awarded Stopford Cat Rescue a £7,225 grant to help cats in need.
Thanks to this funding, 20 cats have received vital care, including neutering and vaccinations.
One of those cats is Button, who was abandoned and lived off scraps before being rescued. With our funds, Button received the care he needed and is now thriving in his new home 😻
This is what your support makes possible 🙏 ... See MoreSee Less
