Ability Dogs 4 Young People Isle of Wight will hold its Gala Weekend and Fun Dog Show next month.

The free event is set to take place on June 8 and 9, from 10am to 4pm, at the training centre located at Sandown Airport.

The Gala Weekend and Fun Dog Show will be a vibrant unification of local businesses and organisations, all in support of Ability Dogs 4 Young People’s mission to empower young people facing physical and mental disabilities.

The event will feature demonstrations of the range of skills the Ability Dogs in training master, as well as the return of the immensely popular Fun Dog Show.

The weekend will include games, stalls and family friendly activities.

“We are dedicated to supporting young people with disabilities, providing them with the tools they need to reclaim their sense of freedom and belief in themselves.

"The upcoming Gala Weekend is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate and share the invaluable contribution our Ability Dogs make to the mental and physical well-being of young people on the Island.

"We are so excited to welcome the community to what promises to be a very special event.”
