We're delighted to confirm that we have won €3,000 in the Better Together Video Competition organised by The Wheel - the national representative body for community and voluntary groups.

The online competition called for the public to vote for their favourite video and we were fortunate enough to make it as a top ten finalist, thanks to the generous support of the public and our own community of clients, volunteers, staff and contributors.

We'd like to express our sincerest thanks to everyone who voted, helping us to raise much needed funds for our Asssistance Dog Programme. Thank you also to 'The Wheel' for this innovative campaign that has helped to raise awareness and funds for so many charitable organisations.
