Initial Consultation Animal Assisted Activities

£250.00

This package is for an initial consultation followed by an activity session in your setting.

During the activity session, we will lead a variety of activities alongside a member of your staff team. The content and organisation of the session will depend on your priorities and the needs of the children involved. The presence of a therapy animal is known to;

  • increase motivation and engagement in learning
  • support development of trust and relationship skills
  • enhance mental health and well-being
  • stimulate interaction and communication

Activities can be delivered to individual children or to small groups of children. It’s up to you how you’d like to use the time but we will be more than happy to discuss the options and advise you where we can.

Whatever your goals, we’ll endeavor to support them with fun, fur, feathers and an experience fondly remembered by all.
