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.
Good work Yoshi Bear, you will bring light into some many lives.
