How to help

If you live locally to us there are lots of things you can do to help:
  • Come on our walks which provides great publicity, the dogs love it, we help socialise the youngsters amongst us, and we raise a few £s as well.  All dogs welcome – not just greyhounds
  • Attend or volunteer at our fundraising events and help raise much needed funds whilst enjoying time with your own dogs (most of our events involve our dogs)
  • Join us at a Meet and Greet - usually outside a garden centre, pet store or supermarket. Our dogs love all the fuss they get as folk get to find out how lovely they are and pop money in our tins at the same time. Keep an eye on our future events for the next one
  • Donate or collect new items (such as unwanted gifts) for us to sell or raffle
  • Make jams, cakes or chutneys (or anything creative) that we can sell at our events - bring them with you
  • If you can knit or sew you can help make items for us to sell or make coats for needy dogs in cold kennels. Ask Marian for details.
If you are not near us but want to get involved:
  • Speak to your local rescue centre and see what help they need. All over the UK, animal shelters are desperately short of funds, volunteers, bedding, and food - especially in these hard times when money is short and more and more animals are abandoned.

If you are not able to be hands-on but want to help:

  • Promote as much as you can the situation regarding the thousands of unwanted greyhounds who are killed at a young age because they are of no further use
  • Highlight wherever possible what wonderful, loving pets greyhounds and lurchers make
  • Simply make a donation - check out this site (and others) for any appeals for really desperate cases - any donations, however small, will make such a difference.
