Dogs Trust Freedom Project

Dogs Trust

What is the Freedom Project?

Dogs Trust Freedom Project is a dog fostering service for people fleeing domestic abuse and going into refuge. The service has been running for 16 years and has helped over 1,500 people to flee domestic abuse and now runs in Greater London & the Home Counties, East Anglia, Yorkshire, the North East, the North West, and Scotland.

How does the Freedom Project help?

Many refuges are not in a position to accept pets so in many cases people experiencing domestic abuse are unable to leave their home until they know there is somewhere safe for their dog. Dogs Trust offers a solution by providing free and confidential foster care, enabling the owner to access a refuge without the fear of what may happen to their dog if left behind.

How you can help

The service runs thanks to the support and commitment of volunteer foster carers who love and care for the dogs in their own homes. If you have experience caring for dogs, are at home most of the day and can commit to fostering for at least six months then we would love to hear from you – please get in touch with our friendly team.
