Veterans With Dogs is the first UK charitable organisation to directly address the needs of mental health difficulties for former service personnel of the British Armed Forces. Founded in 2012, they have developed programmes for the training of Assistance Dogs and Companion Animals to help improve quality of life for those who have experienced difficulties with mental health due to service.
