Pets As Therapy relies on monetary gifts and donations to fund our charitable work. Make a one-off donation or commit to donating a regular monthly gift – please Gift Aid it – and you will help to ensure that PAT continues to recruit more volunteers. As a result, we’ll be able to visit more establishments, bringing joy and companionship to more people.
A one-off donation, perhaps made in memory of someone you love or a faithful pet, is a special tribute and a wonderful way to celebrate their life. You may also wish to donate a funeral or memorial collection made in lieu of flowers.
Alternatively, commit to a monthly donation. Even a small regular donation of £3 a month or just 10p a day – the equivalent of buying a few pet treats – can make a big difference to people's lives.
Remember to Gift Aid your donation. Gift Aid is a government scheme which allows charities such as Pets As Therapy to reclaim 25p on every £1 donated to them by UK tax payers. Every gift you make to Pets As Therapy, whatever its value, could be worth more if you choose to Gift Aid it – at no extra cost to you. For example, if you donate £20 we can claim an extra £5, making your gift worth £25. Every year an estimated £560million is left unclaimed by UK charities, so please Gift Aid any donation you make, if you can.
"A boy came over to Suzi, put his arms around her and told her he loved her. That makes volunteering all the more worthwhile." Stephen (PAT Volunteer)
