What we do

Rosie’s Trust is Northern Ireland’s only charity dedicated to helping cancer patients, the terminally ill and older people with disabilities hold on to their companion pets at a time when they need them most.

Rosie’s Trust cares for our beneficiaries’ companion dogs and/or cats in their homes when they are no longer able to look after them independently.

Our volunteers provide help and support in all aspects of pet care, including feeding, grooming, exercising, play and stimulation, and vet visits.   Our volunteers are our eyes and ears, ensuring when they visit that our beneficiaries are as well as can be and providing welcome social contact for many.

We can provide fostering services when our beneficiaries need to spend a period of time in hospital or in hospice care. We can also find new homes for their pets when the beneficiaries are no longer able to care for them, including when they die.

Our services offer peace of mind for our beneficiaries as they know Rosie’s Trust will support them in the care of their companion pet for as long as they need us and our resources permit.

Gifts In Wills

If you are living your life with a companion pet, you will understand the strong bond that can exist between a person and their beloved pets.

Rosie’s Trust provides our services free of charge, 365 days of the year.  We depend on donations to cover our service costs, and every penny gifted to us is carefully used.

Please consider making a gift in your will to Rosie’s Trust – to help us secure and grow our services throughout Northern Ireland.

Thank you.
