Driven by his goal to one day speak confidently with anyone—whether a peer or potential employer—Rohan’s determination and courage were clear from day one.

Participants Ivy and Ruby were treated to a rare and very special surprise when Ten Lives volunteer, Cindy, arrived with a tiny guest: Mr Peabody, a three-week-old kid goat she has been caring for. 

During a recent Ten Lives session, two participants—one shy and reserved, the other lively and outgoing—found common ground through an unexpected moment of connection.

At our Ten Lives Cat Centre program in Hobart, a meaningful moment of connection unfolded when new participant Ruby, had her very first interaction with Kava, a 13-year-old tabby known affectionately by HPHH volunteers as a bit of a ’grumpy old girl’.
