About the Project Creator
HugglePets in the Community are a Community Interest Company looking to help support people combat loneliness and help to improve their own mental health, we officially launched in January 2019 but, prior to this we have been working on various community initiatives since the start of 2018, we are passionate about bringing people in the local area together.
Over the last 12 months, we have been working behind the scenes on new projects that support children to help them learn and develop, grow in confidence, enhance their social skills and develop their knowledge along with coping mechanisms to cope with stress via Animal Assisted Therapy. We are also working on workshops to help children with sensory disabilities and/or combat loneliness for people that find themselves isolated in society.
