A note from Helpful Hounds Assistance Dogs
At Beaucroft Special School, a dog called Henry helps the students move through their day calmly and safely, and puts a smile on the face of everyone who meets him. Year two of this partnership made more dogs like Henry possible.
What Sandbanks Wealth Partners made possible
For two seasons, AFC Bournemouth was our official charity partner. When that ended in November 2025, the question was whether the next planned cohort of puppies would still happen. Sandbanks is the answer. Your second-year support meant we did not have to defer a single placement.
Year two funded five new puppies into training. Three new school placements began. Twelve young people now have a Helpful Hound at the centre of their week. None of them paid a penny. From Peter, from Sarah, and from a small team in Dorset who do this every day, thank you.
In their own words
Every day he helps our students transition from one place to another calmly and safely, and he puts a smile on the face of everyone who meets him.
