Isabella and her assistance dog, Storm

Isabella has been supported by a BBC Children in Need funded project at Dogs for Autism. The project provides training for her assistance dog, Storm, who will be accompanying Isabella on her Countryfile Ramble for BBC Children in Need.
Dogs for Autism train and provide assistance dogs to carry out specific tasks for autistic children to mitigate any negative effects of their condition and to support the young people in their daily lives.
Since having Storm, Isabella is able to better manage her emotions using pressure therapy, a technique where Storm will lay across her to mimic a weighted blanket. This helps to relax Isabella and makes her feel less anxious.
