The UK Service Dogs Conference and Awards marks the next chapter of Service Dogs UK’s inaugural Dogs Making a Difference event in 2025, bringing the sector together under a refreshed national identity. This event celebrates the partnerships that change lives, the organisations driving progress, and the people and dogs whose work makes a real difference across the UK.
The UK Service Dogs Conference & Awards 2026 unites Service Dogs UK and the National Foundation for Retired Service Animals to represent the full journey of service — supporting Veterans whose lives are transformed by assistance dogs, while safeguarding the welfare of animals who have dedicated their lives to serving others. Together, this partnership offers sponsors the opportunity to champion wellbeing, resilience, and lifelong care for those who serve — on both ends of the lead.
Ticket price includes; entry to the Conference (with access to all speakers and a light lunch) and a three-course dinner at the Gala Evening, including the Medal of Honour Awards Ceremony.
