Autism Assistance Dogs Ireland (AADI) trains and places assistance dogs with autistic children, bringing safety, calm and independence to everyday life for the whole family.

Keith, joined by Brian McFadden, visited AADI to hand over a donation raised at the KDF annual Golf Day. It covers the full cost of training an assistance dog, and the support that follows a family for up to 10 years.

AADI does phenomenal work, and it's an honour to support their mission. Thank you to everyone whose generosity made it possible.
