Well Deserved Round of A-Paws - Welfare Dogs for World Mental Health Day

In a heartwarming initiative to combat stress and promote well-being, Weston College welcomed two furry friends, Alfie and Diesel. The visit of these four-legged friends brought joy and relaxation to students, creating an unforgettable experience for both humans and canines.

Alfie and Diesel, accompanied by their owners, spent the day at Knightstone campus, engaging with learners who may have been feeling the pressures of the new academic year. As the students interacted with the dogs, they could feel their stress melt away, replaced by smiles and laughter.

The canine visitors proved to be a hit with the students, who relished the opportunity to take a break from their studies and enjoy in a little furry therapy. Students said that Alfie and Diesel’s presence brightened their day and provided a much-needed reprieve from their schedules.

Not only did the learners enjoy the visit, but the dogs also seemed to relish the attention and affection showered upon them. The wagging tails and happy barks were clear signs of their enjoyment.

Alfie and Diesel will be visiting the South West Skills campus on Thursday, bringing their therapeutic magic to even more students seeking stress relief and a dose of canine happiness. The initiative has undoubtedly left a lasting paw print of positivity on Weston College.
