David McCarthy Interview - Adrianne Murphy 14/08/25

Autism Assistance Dogs Ireland’s mission is simple; it is to change the world for autistic children. AADI train assistance dogs, who go on to bring safety, calm, and connection to both children and their families, but it costs €25,000 to train each dog, and they receive no government funding. They rely entirely on public support. Adrianne chats here with David McCarthy, AADI’s Head of Fundraising & Communications who talks about the organisation and how people can help by training a puppy, donating time and/or money, or by getting involved in one of their exiting fundraising campaigns.
