Caroline West has lived in Chorleywood all her life. She moved into Thorpedale when her Dad became too frail to support her. She told staff her dreams were to go to college and work with animals. At college she is now learning art, computers and life skills. The highlight of her week is volunteering at the Dogs Trust, Harefield. Caroline says: ‘It’s my dog job. It’s lovely because you can walk with them and play with them. I chuck balls for them and they bring them back.’ Support worker Teresa Redding adds: ‘Caroline is so happy when she is walking the dogs. It is therapeutic, gives her regular exercise and is a dream come true.’
