Medical Detection Dogs visit to Early Years
Medical Detection Dogs is a charity that works in partnership with researchers, NHS Trusts and Universities. The charity's aim is to train specialist dogs to detect the odour of human disease. Dogs are renowned for their sense of smell.
Medical Alert Assistance Dogs are trained to assist individuals who manage complex medical conditions on a day to day basis. The dogs are taught to identify the odour changes that are associated with certain medical events.
The children enjoyed listening and learning all about the dogs - and meeting one in real life!
