Photo of one of our fundraising team’s stands, raising awareness of our project.  This was at the annual open day August 2023 at Remount Barracks, Melton Mowbray at the weekend by kind invitation of Squadron Leader Nigel Bostock of the Royal Veterinary Corps. A great day with the crowds treated to display by the Defence Animal Training Regiment, as well as marching bands and mounted troops.

Our volunteers worked hard to raise awareness of the project and collected £425.00 in donations on the day!
