Cinnamon Trust, The

The Trust's primary objective is to respect and preserve the treasured relationship between owners and their pets. To this end it works in patnership with owners to overcome any difficulties that might arise. A national network of 5600 community service volunteers has been established to provide practical help when 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 - volunteers take pets into their homes and supply love and care in abundance until owner and pet can be reunited.

Cinnamon Trust also provides long term care for pets whose owners have died or moved to residential accommodation which will not accept pets. Arrangements are made between owners and the Trust well in advance, if possible, so owners do have peace of mind in the knowledge that their beloved companion will have a safe and happy future. Emergency cards available on request.

The Trust does not make a charge for its services, but it natually hopes that pet owners who benefit from its work will make a contribution towards the cost.

The Cinnamon Trust is dependent entirely on voluntary contributions. It receives no state or local authority aid.
