The role of animals in our lives

Young people may become involved in cruelty to animals for a variety of reasons. The activities below address each of these contributing factors.

  • Everyday objects

    The young person will realise during these activities that animals have an impact on everyone in some way and we all interact with animals throughout our lives.

  • How do animals help us?

    In this activity, the young person thinks about how animals help people today and how they have helped us in the past.

 

Intervention programmes

As a guide to which of the sections on the left to use with the young person, we suggest that you use the online assessment tool Developing a suitable intervention programme (Word 17KB).
