Pet Therapy Program

As a Volunteer at Calvary I get to meet wonderful people and share in their life memories.  As part of the Pet-Therapy program, Kookla (greek word for 'baby doll') and I love being part of the Volunteer community.  I watch as faces light up with each stroke of Kookla's head and tightly held cuddle. I feel so privileged to share the joy that she gives to me with others. 

Volunteering at Calvary feels like being part of a big family with shared values and a common understanding and respect of life's vulnerabilities.  It gives me the extraordinary opportunity to be reminded of the truly important aspects of life - love, compassion and dignity. All of which is so greatly symbolised through my little white fluffy dog who, provides these qualities to all in abundance.
