The Cinnamon Trust
"Peace of mind and practical help for people -
love, care and safety for pets"
|
The Cinnamon Trust is a national charity for elderly and terminally
ill pet owners. They offer practical help such as dog walking, fostering
or lifetime care for bereaved pets. The Cinnamon Trust is the only
charity in the UK specifically dedicated to keeping older people
and their pets together. It also gives peace of mind to elderly
owners regarding the future of their beloved pets should the pets
outlive them.
The
Cinnamon Trust seeks to relieve the anxieties, problems, and
sometimes injustices, faced by elderly and terminally ill
people and their pets, thereby saving a great deal of human
sadness and animal suffering.
The Trust was founded for elderly people and their pets, but
its services are also offered to terminally ill pet owners,
for they, sadly and often prematurely, are faced with the
same worries and fears as elderly pet owners. Anyone of any
age can make arrangements for pets that may outlive them to
come into the Trust’s care.
The primary objective is to respect and preserve the treasured
relationship between owners and their pets. The Cinnamon Trust
works in partnership with owners to overcome any difficulties
that might arise. They have a national network of over 10,000
volunteers who provide practical help when any aspect of day
to day care poses a problem, for example walking the dog for
a housebound owner.
A national fostering service is provided for pets whose owners

face
a spell in hospital. Cinnamon Trust also provides long term care
for pets whose owners have died or moved to residential accommodation
which will not accept pets. Owners are given peace of mind in the
knowledge that their beloved companion will have a safe and happy
future.
If you are elderly or terminally ill and need help with dog care
contact The Cinnamon Trust, who can put you in touch with a local
volunteer who will help for free.
If you would like to volunteer, as a dog walker for example, or
in any number of other roles, please also get in touch with the
Trust.
