Creating possibility – Impact survey highlights
Our 2025 research reveals how our services are improving the lives of those who access them as well as their support networks.
Earlier this year we conducted an extensive survey of those who access our three principle services - Assistance Dog, Family Dog and Community Dog.
The key findings and highlights of this survey have been compiled and we are pleased to be able to share them with you.
This survey evidences the positive outcomes that our dogs create and the extent to which their impact reaches beyond the individuals who directly access our services.
The survey was carried out in partnership with Vet AI and funded by Ceva Animal Health. We would like to extend our thanks to both organisations for their collaboration on this important work.
