This Mother’s Day, we’re celebrating every kind of mum – birth mums, foster carers, step-mums, chosen mums, dog mums and the incredible women who support us when we need it most.

At Hounds for Heroes, we also want to recognise the amazing women who help our assistance dogs on their journey. Our volunteer puppy parents, foster mums and trainers give puppies and dogs in training the care, patience and stability they need to grow into life-changing assistance dogs.

Their dedication helps us provide confidence, companionship and independence to injured and disabled members of the UK Armed Forces and Emergency Services.

Mother’s Day can also be a time to remember those who are no longer with us, but whose love continues to shape our lives.

We’re also grateful to the members of the Armed Forces and Emergency Services who are working this Mother’s Day, continuing to serve and protect others.
