Our service works through pairing an older person experiencing loneliness with a local volunteer who has a friendly dog. The volunteer and their dog will visit the older person once a week to go for a walk together or to enjoy a cup of tea and a dog cuddle. Routine and social interaction is so important to our mental and physical wellbeing and we want to help bring this to all older people.
