I apologise to the two groups that I was listening from the office as I had a group visiting this morning. I have heard the speakers and it is heartening to see the work. For us as politicians, the great asset of this committee is that we see first hand the work that is being done. We are also conscious, however, that there is a lot more to be done. I was particularly interested to hear the work Ms Geraghty and Ms Carr have done and to see its positive impact, and similarly with the work in equine therapy. I am aware from my background of the benefits of equine therapy. What is Ms Geraghty's and Ms Carr's funding and, where is it coming from at the moment and is it all charitable funding?
