🐷 ABOUT CURLY TAILS
Curly Tails is a wellbeing centre for humankind that works alongside our animal welfare and rescue programme.
A harmonious, interactive and reciprocal approach to human and animal that improves mental health, wellbeing, education, learning, confidence, self-worth and happiness through inner contentment, empathy and kindness.
We live in a world that is fast paced, busy and sometimes overwhelming and often lose touch with ourselves and others around us including the fact that we all share this planet, human and animal and those bonds, connections and interactions are key to our mental health. 

🌏 We all need others and need to feel a part of the world around us. 
We help thousands of people every year in one way or another and are fully inclusive regardless of background, ability or age.
