Thank you message from Clare Balding

As we wish everyone a Happy New Year, we thought it might be nice to share a video that Clare Balding recorded as a thank you to our volunteers and supporters for all the wonderful work they do for Pets As Therapy.

Clare understands the benefits of companion animal therapy and having met some of our volunteering teams over the years at events such as Crufts and Dogfest, she was only too happy to send a personal message, as well as asking for your help in recruiting more volunteers.
