Many autistic people and their families have already benefited from our Assistance Dogs, and your support will enable us to continue this work

Donating

A life-changing Autism Assistance Dog takes months to train with the family and the dog. It takes our specialist team of over 30 people to help train, support and take care of the welfare of the animal before and even after the qualified Assistance Dog is delivered to their new handler.
It takes a lot of time and money to train our specialist Autism Assistance Dogs. In fact, it takes an average of £22,000 to fully train a family and their dog. We subsidise this cost as much as we can, but we understand that the cost of the programme to the client is still inaccessible for many autistic people in need.
allows you to make donations to our training dogs to help lower our costs. The item you donate will support the care and training of our specialist dogs.
Help us change the lives of more autistic people – just like Edie
