Our Ambassadors form a highly important part of our team, helping to educate the public about the amazing benefits of Autism Assistance Dogs and their experiences

Stephen Massey who is dad to Dylan with AD Blu

My name is Steve. I’m the dad in Team Blu 💙
Dylan was a late diagnosis of ASD aged 17. His youngest sister is now awaiting assessment too. My wife, Gail and myself recognise a lot of autistic traits in ourselves.

I’m passionate about supporting the Autism Dogs Charity as I’ve seen firsthand the impact that these wonderful dogs and people can have.

“Hi I am Riley and I like Harry Potter, Lego, Sci-Fi, and animals – especially Nimbus. Since having Nimbus I feel happier, she is my best friend. Nimbus understands me. Being an ambassador for Autism Dogs means I can show more people how an Assistance Dog helps me.”

Jac Boyce mum to Keira Boyce who has Noodle

“Hi, I’m Jac and I’m autistic. I’m mother to Kiera who has Autism Assistance Dog Noodle. Being an ambassador means a great deal to me. Noodle is helping Kiera to navigate the world around her, and is making such a difference in our lives!“ I hope to draw on my own experience, and use my enthusiastic and sympathetic approach to help other parents and families navigate life with their own life-changing Assistance Dogs. It’s such an honor to be part of such an extraordinary team of people who have done so much for us as a family.”
