With your support, we can reach those who need us most

Loneliness is on the rise, affecting over 3.83 million people in the UK

As a small, volunteer-led charity, we rely on donations to run our service and your support makes a huge difference to the lives of those most in need in our local communities.

Being around a dog can reduce loneliness, increase feelings of social support and boost moods, while increased physical health significantly decreases the risk of developing mental health problems.

Will you be part of the CareDogs solution to end loneliness and social isolation?

Other ways to get involved

Volunteer your time

Are you known in your community and always bursting with ideas? From bake sales to dog drawing events, we love to see how our wider community can band together to help raise funds for our mission. We’d love to hear your ideas!

Fundraise in your community

We are all about community spirit so please let us know if you and your dog may be interested in becoming a befriending CareDogs companion volunteer. And if you don’t have a dog, get involved either behind-the-scenes or at our group walks.
