Choosing to display a Hounds for Heroes collection tin is about so much more than raising funds. 🪙

It’s a simple way to help people discover our work, spark meaningful conversations, and invite customers, colleagues, and visitors to become part of our mission.

Every coin dropped inside is an act of kindness. Every chat it sparks is an opportunity for someone to learn about the difference our dogs make, perhaps for the very first time.

If your business, workplace, or community venue could host one of our tins (and help support pups like this!), we’d love to hear from you.

A huge thank you to the amazing team from the Department for Work and Pensions - DWP, Havant for spending a whole day volunteering with us at Hounds for Heroes!

Your hard work, enthusiasm and teamwork completely transformed one of our rooms, creating a brighter, more welcoming space for our beneficiaries, visitors and four-legged heroes.

Days like these make such a difference to our charity. Not only do they help us improve our facilities, but they also allow us to direct more of our funds towards what matters most.

Thank you for giving your time, energy and skills to support our mission. We hope you enjoyed your day with us as much as we enjoyed having you, and we look forward to welcoming you back in the future!

If you need us, we’ll be following Hope’s lead this week… ☀️🐾

It’s set to get hotter as the week goes on, so please take extra care of your dogs. Think cooler walks, topped-up water bowls and plenty of shade.

If you have any worries about how your dog is coping in the heat, you can always contact your vet for advice.

To round off International Assistance Dog Week, we’re proud to introduce you to Vic and Assistance Dog Titan, another of our recent partnerships.

Having completed Placement Training and successfully passed their Public Access Test, the pair are now officially partnered. They’ve already formed a brilliant bond and make a wonderful team.

At home, Titan helps Vic with the everyday jobs that become difficult when bending is a challenge. He picks up dropped items including house keys, Vic’s wallet and mobile phone, opens kitchen cupboards and even helps with the washing by emptying the machine and passing each item of laundry to Vic.

From lending a paw around the house to being a constant companion, Titan has become an important part of Vic’s everyday life.

Officially partnered, brilliantly matched and very much . 🐾

For Damian, Gibson’s support doesn’t stop when he leaves home. Gibson goes to work with him too!

Partnered since 2018, Gibson helps Damian manage his working day, recognising when it’s time for a break and offering a gentle nudge. Damian says Gibson provides “a degree of confidence and support which has allowed me to continue my career.”

Over the years, they’ve also developed their own ways of working together, including a series of hand signals that allow Damian to communicate with Gibson discreetly. This is particularly useful during presentations, when hearing the word “sit” could otherwise cause a little confusion!

Damian’s experience shows what a difference it makes when an assistance dog partnership is understood and welcomed in the workplace.

As Hounds for Heroes works towards full ADI accreditation, we also recognise how trusted training standards can help organisations understand and welcome assistance dog partnerships with confidence.

For Damian and Gibson, is all part of the working day. 🐾

A huge thank you to Gregg Stevenson MBE, a highly respected British Army veteran, Paralympic gold medallist and advocate for the Armed Forces community, for taking the time to visit Hounds for Heroes!

It was a pleasure to welcome you to our headquarters and share more about the life-changing work we do supporting injured and disabled members of the Armed Forces and Emergency Services through our specially trained assistance dogs.

We always value the opportunity to show visitors, introduce them to our incredible team and highlight the impact that partnerships and support have on the people we help.

Thank you for your interest, your time, and for taking the time to learn more about our mission. We look forward to staying in touch and hopefully working together in the future.

As we celebrate International Assistance Dog Week, we’re so pleased to introduce you to Saeeka and Assistance Dog, Biggles, one of our recent partnerships.

After completing Placement Training and successfully passing their Public Access Test, Saeeka and Biggles are now officially partnered.

Biggles is trained to bring Saeeka everyday items including the post, shoes, clothing, keys and her phone. He can also help her stand from a chair and move from lying on the floor into a seated position, giving Saeeka greater independence at home.

Biggles has also fitted right into family life, and having him by her side gives Saeeka more confidence and reassurance when they’re out and about together.

After all the work that has brought them to this point, we couldn’t be prouder of them both. Saeeka and Biggles really are . 🐾
