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.
