Pets As Therapy is a national charity with a simple but powerful mission: to share the joy of pets with people who need it most. From our base in Oxfordshire and two virtual hubs in Manchester and Scotland, we support more than 4,500 volunteer teams across the UK. Together, they bring comfort, connection and companionship to tens of thousands of people every year. Wherever we visit, the presence of a PAT pet creates a ripple effect of joy, comfort and wellbeing. Demand for our service continues to grow, and with the support of our volunteers, partners and trustees, we are determined to meet it.
