What is the Cinnamon Trust?

The Cinnamon Trust is the specialist national charity for elderly or terminally ill people and their companion animals and performs to the two key objectives:

• To give people peace of mind
• To hold people's hands

Who benefits?

The Cinnamon Trust was founded for elderly people and their pets, but its services are also offered to terminally ill pet owners.  Anyone of any age can make arrangements for pets that may outlive them to come into the Trust’s care.

What does the Cinnamon Trust do?

The Trust’s primary objective is to respect and preserve the treasured relationship between owners and their pets.  To this end it works in partnership with owners to overcome any difficulties that might arise.  A national network of over 7500 volunteers has been established to provide practical help when any aspect of day to day care poses a problem – for example, walking the dog for a housebound owner. 

Who are the Trust’s volunteers?

Pet lovers in all parts of the United Kingdom who realise that to help a pet is also to help its owner by relieving worry and stress and by providing sympathy, compassion and assistance when and where needed.  Volunteers are from all walks of life.  It is vital that all volunteers are prepared to show commitment and will be available to assist in an emergency.  Volunteers are needed in all areas now!

Can I be a volunteer?
