Open to all pets, regardless of life stage, this heart-warming initiative has now become a tradition for the community of pet lovers.
Last year's effort saw the sale of over 300 decorations, resulting in a commendable £900 raised for animal charities. Building on this success, Dignity took a strategic step this year by bringing the crafting process in-house, effectively reducing production costs and allowing for a more substantial contribution to charitable causes.
The animal charities to benefit from this year's fundraising campaign, include; The Rumba Foundation, Greyhounds 4 U, Blue Cross Pet Bereavement Support Service, Tower Hill Stables Animal Sanctuary, Dogs Trust, RSPCA – Hants & Surrey Border, Hedgehog Bottom, Desperate Greekies, National Search & Rescue Dog Association, Battersea Dogs & Cats Home, and The Humanimal Trust.
