Greyhound Lifeline's Schedule of Events for 2023.

This year we have a wide variety of events from group walks, Easter & Summer Fair events, nail clipping services, meet and greets & a range of collections.  We hope you will be able to join us at some of these events.

Holding these events, allow us the opportunity to promote the breed as pets, raise awareness of our charity, the work we do, help fund the work we carry out and also social events for all us ‘greyhound owners’ who enjoy the work we do.

Easter Walk & Picnic:

Join us for an Easter treat!  A nice walk on the New Forest, followed by picnic, Easter Raffle & Homemade Doggie Treats!

Summer Fair:

Book the dates now for our Summer Fair, it will be our first in Southampton and we are really looking forward to it.

Lots of stalls including – greyhound/dog merchandise, plant sale, homemade cakes, copper collection, Aqua jewellery, handcrafted gifts, children’s games and crafts, doggie games and plenty of treats for sale – ranging from homemade biscuits, bones, chews and a doggie lucky dip!  We will also have our own fun dog show – all dogs are welcome to attend and our kennel dogs will be present for our ‘homeless hound’ parade.
