Every day, disabled people who rely on highly trained assistance dogs face unnecessary barriers. From being refused entry to shops and restaurants, to navigating confusing legal protections. These challenges persist despite the vital role assistance dogs play in giving people greater independence, confidence, and opportunity. Outdated legislation and a lack of clarity around rights and responsibilities mean progress is slow. Change is urgently needed.
That’s where you come in. We are working in partnership with Assistance Dogs UK (ADUK), the umbrella body of 14 accredited assistance dog charities in the UK, to build an Advisory Panel of expert voices to help shape the future of access and protection for assistance dog partnerships. By joining, you will contribute to a vision of a society where disabled people face no barriers, where legislation is clear and enforceable, and where high standards safeguard both people and dogs.
What we’re looking for
Panel members will bring credibility, relevant skills and knowledge, and a commitment to integrity, openness, and collaboration. You will be confident in influencing, communicating clearly, and making an active contribution. The ability to draw on your networks to support the panel’s work is also valuable.
To achieve this, ADUK seeks individuals from the following fields:
- Legal - able to offer insight and guidance on legislative frameworks and legal interpretations
- Lobbying and changemaking
- Advocacy
- Disability rights and access
- Animal welfare
- Strategic communications, marketing or PR
Panel members are expected to:
- Demonstrate high levels of personal credibility, bringing relevant experience, skills and knowledge.
- Conduct themselves with integrity, objectivity, openness, and honesty.
- Demonstrate their capability to be personally effective, with excellent communication skills, and the ability to influence, and actively contribute.
- Harness relevant networks as required.
Training will be provided on assistance dog standards and/or ADUK policy context.
About ADUK
ADUK work to the highest international standards of assistance dog training and welfare, uniting their member organisations, and systematically changing minds - from policymakers to service providers, through to sector professionals and the general public, using evidence-based advocacy and education to further their objectives.
If you’re really excited about this opportunity, but your experience doesn’t align with the skills and experience above, we still encourage you to get in touch to tell us what you can offer the ADUK Advisory Panel.
For more information, please contact Katherine Anderson-Scott, Executive Director of Charisma Charity Recruitment. Expressions of interest should be submitted through the Charisma website and include a comprehensive CV and supporting statement.
We welcome and encourage expressions of interest from people of all backgrounds who reflect our diverse society.
Closing date: Monday 24 November 2025
Charisma vetting interviews will need to be completed by close of play on the 2 December in preparation for shortlist submission on the 3 December.
Interviews with ADUK are expected to take place in mid-December, with the possibility of some sessions being conducted in January 2026. We appreciate your understanding as we navigate a busy time of year.
