THE new North West Dogs for the Disabled Supporter Group needs enthusiastic members of all ages to help with fundraising events and to suggest and follow up fundraising opportunities.
The group was set up at the beginning of 2015 and has already raised almost £9,000 through giving talks, supermarket collections, a sponsored walk and attending events.
Dogs for the Disabled creates exceptional partnerships between people and dogs; from assistance dogs helping children and adults with physical disabilities and families affected by autism to pet dog autism workshops and innovative new projects working in schools and residential care settings.
The charity receives no government funding and relies entirely on donations, fundraising and volunteers to continue its pioneering work.
