Holloway Road Fire Station hosted a community day earlier in the month, showasing some of their dogs in service. Age UK Islington attended to share information about their helpline for Islington residents (information and guidance about anything to do with day-to-day living). The London Fire Brigade Wellbeing Dogs were a huge hit. They are pictured above with Age UK Islington volunteer Irene and their handler Sarah.

The Wellbeing Dogs are part of an initiative to help London Fire Brigade staff unwind & relax when they want to talk about the things that might be troubling them.
