2024 was an amazing year for us, it was filled with homings and action packed events.
During the year we rehomed 54 greyhounds, including our long stayers – Milton and Giant; who are now living life to the full!

We held and were part of 35 events ranging from small fairs to our own summer fair and ‘The Big Walk’.

Our volunteers took on the challenge of walking 40 miles to raise funds for our paddock fund. The whole team worked hard to achieve the end goal. They raised £4,189.32, AMAZING!

We have had our sad times too including the loss of Yoyo our ‘special’ lad that so many of us loved, like he was our own. The team pulled through this time together and supported one another.
Thank you to all our volunteers and supporters, none of 2024 would have been possible without your dedicated work. We are so lucky to have an ever growing team full of like minded people.
