Dogs for Autism feature on BBC Children in Need Bargain Hunt Special

We were absolutely thrilled to see our charity, Dogs for Autism, featured on a special episode of BBC One’s Bargain Hunt in support of BBC Children in Need this year. Renowned TV chef Jean-Christophe Novelli spoke to Jan Kiley, Chief Operating Officer, in a special segment during the programme.

It was incredibly moving to see our organisation recognised nationally on such a popular show. We are so grateful to the BBC, Children in Need, Jean-Christophe and Zana’s family for helping us share our story and inspire viewers to support Children in Need.
