Would you be prepared to approach shops, garden centres or perhaps even the company you work for to ask if they would we willing to display a copy of our homing poster? Our waiting list of dogs needing a homing place continues to grow at a rapid rate, but we cannot take any of these dogs in until homes are found for the greyhounds already in our care. A little extra publicity could help find a home for a greyhound. If you can help then please send in an email so that we can email you back a copy of the poster for home printing.
Please take a minute to tear the postage stamps off all your letters, then pop them in an envelope and send to the Retired Greyhound Trust at 2nd Floor, Park House, 1-4 Park Terrace, Worcester Park, Surrey KT4 7JZ. Every kilogram of used stamps can be sold to raise funds for the RGT of which Greyhound Lifeline are just one branch. Perhaps you could ask your friends and work colleagues to collect too?

Small items (e.g, stocking filler toys, toiletries, unwanted gifts etc ) are needed to re-stock the fundraising tombola stall. A guide value of £2 or less per item is appropriate. Larger/more valuable items would also be gratefully received as future raffle prizes. No food items please.
Boy or Girl highlights the common problem in greyhound rescue and re homing of finding homes for the greyhound males. Perhaps after reading through the page you might give equal consideration to adopting a boy.
