Professional therapy dog and animal-assisted wellbeing services for schools, SEND settings, EOTAS, hospitals, universities, workplaces and communities across the UK.

​

At Therapy Paws UK, we connect organisations and individuals with professionally delivered therapy dog and animal-assisted wellbeing experiences, designed to encourage calm, connection and positive interactions.

​

Through our network of independent therapy dog handler partners and their carefully assessed dogs, we coordinate sessions across a wide range of settings, including schools, colleges, universities, hospitals, care homes, churches, corporate workplaces, charity events and community organisations.

​

We understand the special connection that can develop between people and animals. Positive human–animal interaction can provide opportunities for emotional expression, confidence building, engagement and social connection.

​

Whether supporting students during exam periods, offering comfort within healthcare settings, creating opportunities for connection in care homes or bringing something special to workplace wellbeing events, our sessions are planned around the needs of each organisation and the people taking part.

Professional, Safe and Welfare-Led Sessions

Every Therapy Paws UK booking is coordinated with a strong focus on safeguarding, professional standards, animal welfare and ethical practice.

​

Our independent handler partners bring their own experience, training and carefully assessed therapy dogs to each booking. We work with our partners and the organisations we serve to ensure that sessions are appropriately planned, risk-assessed and tailored to the needs of those participating.

​

We are committed to providing a safe, supportive and inclusive experience, with the wellbeing of people and dogs at the heart of everything we do.

Professional Therapy Paws Sessions

Therapy Paws UK provides professional, paid-for therapy dog and wellbeing sessions for individuals, schools, care homes and organisations.

​

We also believe that access to positive animal-assisted experiences should not be limited by financial circumstances.

​

Through our GoFundMe fundraising initiative, we aim to raise funds to provide donated therapy dog sessions for individuals and organisations who may otherwise be unable to access them.
