Hounds for Heroes

Well it has been an amazing first 6 months of our new charity. Never in my wildest imagination would I have thought that there would be so much enthusiasm for this charity. I am out and about nearly every week, visiting supporters and collecting cheques and cash. Thanks for your support and please keep it going.

Allen Parton
Founder of Hounds for Heroes

The purpose of "Hounds for Heroes" is to provide specially trained assistance dogs to injured and disabled men and women of both the UK Armed Forces and Civilian Emergency Services. Through this provision our aims are to provide help and practical support leading to an enhanced quality of life for our clients.

We have launched our “Puppies on Parade Appeal” that aims to raise £100,000 and will fund, train and maintain 5 puppies for 5 years. With over 900,000 injured Servicemen and women in the UK we have a big hill to climb.

Our vision is to have disabled Service, and Emergency Service, personnel with Hounds for Heroes dogs as regular sights on the high streets and we all look forward to the day that a “Hound” is on the Annual Remembrance Parade by the Cenotaph in London.
