“Home Instead is proud to be working with the Dublin SPCA on a programme that will give older people a greater sense of purpose and meaning, and animals a second chance,” said Ed Murphy, Chief Executive of Home Instead Senior Care.

Lori Davis, Dublin SPCA explains: “Animals can have a profound and positive impact on people. As an organization, we look for ways in which we can help animals and improve people’s lives. Through our Senior Pet Fostering programme, we will save the lives of orphaned, abandoned and forgotten animals and provide meaningful experiences for seniors. This programme fulfills our core philosophy that by fostering a compassionate relationship between humans and animals, we create a kinder and more caring society.”
