Caesar goes to Westminster
...Home of the United Kingdom Parliament
3rd July 2003
We were invited by Andrew Rosindell MP to attend a Presentation on the Use of Assistance Dogs within the United Kingdom and Europe at Portcullis House, Westminster.
Once through security, we were taken to the Boothroyd Committee Room for the meeting.
Here we met up with other representatives of Dogs for the Disabled, the four other assistance dog charities that serve the United Kingdom,
and some Members of Parliament, including our own MP, Annette Brooke.

Each charity represented gave some input to the meeting, either by demonstation with an assistance dog or client testimony or both.
On behalf of Dogs for the Disabled, I spoke briefly about changes in my life since being partnered with Caesar.
See what I had to say here
