Canine Partners Volunteers

Canine Partners is a registered charity that transforms the lives of people with physical disabilities by partnering them with assistance dogs and other highly trained dogs. Our amazing dogs bring a greater independence and quality of life to their partners, offering security, companionship, and practical help with everyday household tasks. These life-changing dogs also provide psychological and social benefits including increased independence, confidence, social interaction and self-esteem.

We have a range of fantastic opportunities for people to help volunteering with us. Roles available include:
• Dog Foster Volunteers
• Fundraising Group Members
• Fundraising Group Leaders
• Collections Volunteers
• Event Volunteers
• Speaker Volunteers

There are flexible times available to volunteer. Relevant training, excellent support (including a dedicated point of contact), reimbursement of expenses is provided and all help makes a real difference and is greatly appreciated.


Mel, one of our brilliant Volunteers, says “To anyone thinking about volunteering for Canine Partners, my advice is simple – do it! It’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.”
