Animal-Assisted Therapy
At Wee Critters we aim to make our experience as inclusive as possible. We offer specialised experiences and animal-assisted therapy sessions for vulnerable adults, children with accessibility requirements and charity groups.
Meeting our Wee Critters can have many physiological and psychological benefits. Our sessions aim to deliver a sensory experience which encourages learning, expression of emotions and promotes relaxation.
​
We offer discounted rates for care homes, residential facilities, assisted living facilities, day centres, charities and hard to reach members of our community.
​
Allan the Explorer has completed a range of training to make our service as accessible and enjoyable as possible.
