We believe that the human-animal bond improves quality of life.
We believe in the social, emotional and physiological benefits of positive interaction between people and therapy animals.
Our programs include visits to hospitals, aged care facilities, mental health facilities, dementia wards, palliative care, disability services, health clinics, schools, correctional facilities and workplaces.
Our volunteer teams bring joy to the lives of those in need. We brighten the lives of approximately 20,000 people around Australia each week.

Whether you’re an aged care or mental health facility, hospital or other care facility, therapy animals are a unique addition to your care plan and will positively affect patients’ and residents’ health and wellbeing.
Sponsor a Delta Therapy team as an individual or organisation.
Create a fundraiser at work or in your community.

[Image Description: A #DeltaTherapyDog moment with a female program beneficiary dressed in a black blouse with pink and cream florals and black and white stripe trousers. She is gently stroking the face of a Delta Therapy Dog who is smiling up at the her. The Delta Therapy Dog is smiling and you can see a Delta bandanna peeking under their long hair fur which is white around their neck, face and paws. The rest of their body is long black fur. The Delta Therapy Dog volunteer stands to the side. This moment sparks joy.]
