Canine Partners
Canine Partners is a registered charity that transforms the lives of people with
physical disabilities by partnering them with assistance dogs. Our amazing dogs bring a greater independence and quality of life to their partners, offering support, security, companionship, and practical help with everyday household tasks. By volunteering at Canine Partners you contribute to something very special –
‘transforming the lives of people with physical disabilities by partnering them with assistance dogs’
About the opportunity
By volunteering you will:
An opportunity to talk to members of the public about our work
To meet like-minded people
To become part of a rewarding and enjoyable new opportunity
Volunteers are an invaluable part of our team and whatever time you can
give, will help us to continue our life-transforming work.
‘Without the continued hard work and support from our volunteers, we would not be able to provide our clients with our life changing dogs’
What is involved
We are looking for friendly and passionate volunteers to be our voice, to help us primarily raise awareness of our Puppy Parent role and our charity in your local area. You will be our eyes and ears to attend and organise local events in your community. Distribute literature/leaflets and identify locations to place posters local to you. You will have fun, meet others, make new friends as well as talking about the difference our amazing charity makes and why it is so important, helping us to raise vital funds and promote our volunteering opportunities. This opportunity can involve anything from a few hours each month (or whatever you can spare). This opportunity is a flexible role so can fit around your free time and personal commitments. No experience is needed, just lots of enthusiasm.
