05:05On behalf of Tor Stort想
05:07and I want to thank you for your visit today
05:09we are so grateful that you found time to come and visit us
05:11Hmm
05:13and it's been
05:15It's so enlightening to see how interested you are in our work, and that encourages us to work with more people.
05:23I think it's been truly amazing.
05:25Can I invite you to unveil the plaque now, Rosie?
05:28Thank you very much for inviting me to say thank you very much to all of you for what you're doing for our young people with autism.
05:36To find a way and a means of enabling them to go outside, to interact with people with confidence,
05:44to get into places that they would otherwise have found completely inaccessible because of the stresses that autism can bring,
05:50is absolutely crucial, and we're lucky enough to have in our lives these amazing four-legged creatures
05:56who do amazing work, whether it be with guide dogs for the blind, for assistance dogs, buddy dogs,
06:02and obviously now with dogs for autism, we're very lucky to have them.
06:06It's a two-way street.
06:10They provide the access for young people, but actually they also, for all the families that have these dogs in their lives,
06:17it's actually, they're not just for that one individual.
06:20They bring so much to the rest of the family as well, so thank you for all that you're doing,
06:24and to all the people that are involved, whether it be foster parents or dog walkers,
06:30all of the fundraisers and those people that have been supporting,
06:35and the people that came and did this amazing transformation to what apparently was a bit of a dusty old barn.
06:42It's wonderful, and it's provided charity with a fantastic facility to be able to train the dogs in a really appropriate space.
06:50Thank you very much for inviting me today. It's been an absolute joy, and I promise I'm not going to leave.
06:56You might have to check, though, once I'm gone.
