Students at Kent Business School will have the chance to de-stress during the exam period when local charity Pets as Therapy bring five adorable dogs to the Sibson building.

All are welcome to attend. The dogs and their owners will be visiting on:

Tuesday 9 May 2017

12.00 – 15:00

Sibson Atrium (Canterbury Campus).

Visiting the school will be Jem (German Shepherd), Holly (Springer Spaniel), Millie (Labrador cross), Daffy (Shihtzu cross), Sabie (Bull Terrier/ Labrador cross) and Bunty (Golden Retriever). Find out more about Pets as Therapy.

Interaction with the dogs is free-of-charge, but there will be the opportunity to donate to the charity, which provides therapeutic visits to hospitals, nursing and care homes as well as special needs schools and other establishments.

Melissa Neave, Vice-President of the Kent Business Society, has organised the visit: ‘Everyone is really stressed around exam time and, as a society, we just thought it would be fun to try something new, particularly as we are in the new Sibson building, and hopefully raise some money for a really great charity.’
