Allyship Package Overview

ADUK supports organisations to build confidence around assistance dog partnership access while strengthening wider Equality, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI) practices across their workforce and customer environments.

Through practical training, policy guidance, and lived experience insight, we help reduce the risk of complaints, inconsistent responses, and reputational challenges, while supporting organisations to create more accessible, inclusive, and welcoming experiences for both customers and employees.

Our approach also enables organisations to demonstrate meaningful social responsibility and long-term allyship in a practical and measurable way.

The training session was engaging, educational, valuable and very eye opening. The topic is extremely relevant for hospitality, and the presentation was tailored to fit our learning needs and audience.

From the housekeeping, to the banqueting and front office, our teams mentioned they are now better prepared to welcome our guests who bring assistance dogs. ADUK also kindly offered feedback about staying in our hotel with an assistance dog, which was extremely helpful.

Thank you so much ADUK, and I look forward to continuing collaborating with you! Keep up the wonderful work.
