Children in Care
We have several programmes that the young people you're working with / caring for may be eligible to take part in:
Paws for Change
A unique programme matching young people with a rescue dog chosen specifically for them. The young person takes part in a hands on programme, where they take responsibility for teaching their assigned dog basic commands, providing the opportunity for interaction with an animal and building key communication skills.
Animal Care Apprenticeships
Offering promising young people from disadvantaged backgrounds a chance to pursue a career helping animals.
Wild Things
Giving young people from deprived areas access to nature and animals in ways that may not have otherwise been possible.
Support for foster carers
We can offer advice and have a variety of resources for foster carers who would like to learn more about supporting their foster child in relationships with animals. If you require support from us, please email our Information & Education Advisers: education@rspca.org.uk.
