For many of us in Surrey and the surrounding area, our pet therapy animals have been a beacon of hope, companionship, and healing. I founded this company to harness the unique bond between humans and animals, providing an invaluable service to our local community by supporting mental health, combating loneliness, and promoting overall well-being. Our therapy animals have made a profound impact, offering solace to those grappling with isolation and mental health struggles. They have become not just animals, but cherished members of our community, revered for the joy and comfort they provide.

However, we are now confronted with a devastating challenge. Our beloved therapy animals are being evicted from our land by the Surrey Heath Council. This abrupt decision threatens to dismantle the significant progress we've made in enhancing the lives of countless individuals who depend on these animals for routine therapy and emotional support.

In our region, where mental health services and support are constantly in demand, our pet therapy initiatives serve as a crucial supplement to the limited resources available. According to the UK Mental Health Foundation, one in four people will experience a mental health issue each year, underscoring the urgent need for diverse support services like ours. Our therapy animals play an essential role in reducing anxiety, alleviating depression, and providing purpose and routine for many who feel lost or invisible.

Evicting our animals would not only be a loss for us but a substantial loss to the community at large. We seek a resolution that allows us to continue operating and supporting those in need. We propose a dialogue with the Surrey Heath Council to explore alternative solutions, such as granting us an extension to find alternative options suited to our animals and extra support. 

Our request is founded on compassion and a shared goal of fostering a healthier community. We urge Surrey Heath Council to reconsider its decision and work collaboratively with us. Please join us in advocating for our therapy animals, vital to both individual healing journeys and collective community health.

Your support is crucial in preserving this lifeline for so many. Please sign this petition to prevent the eviction of our therapy animals and ensure the continuation of our community support services. Together, we can make a difference and uphold the well-being of those who rely on these cherished companions.
