Yoshi Bear is five years old and is a Pets as Therapy Dog. He lives with Charlotte, our Area Co-ordinator for Stevenage, and loves nothing better than helping children relax, laugh and have fun.
His sister Darcey and another chocolate cocker spaniel, Teddy, also share a home with him. Yoshi wears a bell to help Teddy to move around as he is blind. Yoshi is a real life super hero! He is the newest staff member of NESSie and is very excited to begin work soon.
Yoshi Bear has been nominated by the Hertfordshire NHS for A Leading Lights Award for his contribution as a volunteer at the Watford Neurological Rehabilitation Unit. His sessions have been described as ‘magical’! We cannot wait to bring his magic to our team.
