Maple Monday – Flint House Special 🐾
Last week, Maple enjoyed her very first working week at Flint House. While continuing her rehabilitation, she provided pawsome wellbeing support @FlintHouseRehab#ptsd#wellbeing#dogs
Maple’s first day at work has been pawsitively amazing! 🐾 She’s been dishing out cuddles, spreading pawsome wellbeing, and unleashing a tidal wave of oxytocin all around Flint House. Maple has completely stolen everyone’s hearts @FlintHouseRehab#wellbeingdog#ptsd#bluepaw
Today is Blue/Brew Monday
Today’s the day.
The day you reach out.
The day you sit down together, kettle on, biscuits open.
The day conversation creates connection.
Human connection is powerful. It’s closer than we think, and it saves lives.

An afternoon helping with wellbeing and conversations today British Transport Police Croydon, officers and staff have had a high level of traumatic incidents over the last few weeks so it’s been good to provide them a set of paws @BTP#wellbeing

Wellbeing Walk Wednesday
Today we took to the lead at @FlintHouseRehab for the 3 mile Wellbeing walk. Often I am asked why the guy at the other end of the lead is never in the pictures so we thought a cheeky selfie was in order. #wellbeing#walkandtalk@CotswoldLadyB
