In the Summer of 2023, Aquila were proud to enter into a sponsorship partnership with Hounds for Heroes, a very notable charity who provide specially trained assistance dogs to disabled and injured HM Forces and Emergency Services personnel. Hounds for Heroes assistance dogs are trained from puppies to adults and then matched with an applicant, giving day to day support and invaluable companionship.
Happily, we have been assigned Astra the cadet puppy, as the dog who’s journey we will sponsor. She is currently in the process of training for life as an assistance dog and we hear, doing very well so far. As a company, we have a target to reach to effectively sponsor Astra’s career so we got to work straight away. Thanks to our workforces’ efforts with various car washes, cake bakes, hikes, cycles and other such events, we have raised nearly £5,000 and there’s no stopping us there. We have big plans to keep up our endeavours and commitment to Astra into 2024 and beyond.
