Medical Detection Dogs trains dogs to detect the odour of human disease. It is at the forefront of the research into the fight against cancer and helping people with life-threatening diseases. Our Bio-Detection Dogs are trained to find the odour of diseases, such as cancer, in samples such as urine, breath and swabs. Our Medical Alert Assistance Dogs are trained to detect minute changes in an individual’s personal odour triggered by their disease* and alert them to an impending medical event. We receive no government funding for the work we do and rely entirely on the generosity of donations from trusts and the public.
Megan Baker House provides Conductive Education services to children throughout the UK with Cerebral Palsy. These services are provided to families free of charge. The aim of the services are to enable each individual child to reach their full potential.
We aim to empower all those who enjoy active outdoor lifestyles with the importance of sun protection to help prevent and detect all forms of skin cancer. We focus on all who work and participate in sports and outdoor recreation, and over the past decade have curated unrivaled support from the sector, working with national governing bodies to consistently champion campaigns, that improve and support their duty of care around sun safety. Through constant innovation, we work with the UK's leading sports organisations to improve and streamline our campaigns annually to ensure impact and expand reach, improve behavior and perceptions around sun protection, and ultimately reduce the incidence of melanoma and other types of skin cancer. We supply free resources to clubs and communities and ensure that sunscreen is available to those who may not have access to it, specifically children from low-income families. We do this via collaboration with larger organisations and charities, and support this with education to ensure that everyone understands how, why, when, and where to protect their skin. Melanoma is avoidable and we aim to ensure we provide all those at the highest risk with the opportunity to detect it, and ultimately prevent it.
