Supermarket support for pet charity
The charity will now receive a year’s worth of support through fundraising and awareness raising from the store.
Louise Russell, founder of Give a Dog a Bone, said: “We’re really excited to have been chosen as the store’s new Local Charity of the Year, as the partnership will let our local community know that the charity exists to support the over 60’s to afford a rescue pet companion.”
