Donations needed to help homeless hounds have a ‘paw-some’ Christmas

Festive frolics are afoot at Dogs Trust Cardiff as the team deck the halls in preparation for its annual Christmas Fair on Saturday 9th December and Sunday 10th December.

With just a few weeks to go until the South Glamorgan-based rehoming centre hosts the much-loved festive event, staff are on the lookout for donations of chocolate, sweet treats, toiletries, trinkets, and bottles for its tombola, pre-loved doggie accessories and Christmas decorations.

Andrew Upton, Supporter Relations Officer at Dogs Trust Cardiff, said:

“The Christmas Fair is a key fundraising event for us and it’s always a great day for everyone.

“Every penny raised makes sure we can give our dogs everything they need throughout the year, not just at Christmas, whilst they wait for their forever homes.”

At the event, which runs from 11 am to 4 pm, both the furry and the furless among us can have a ‘pawsitively’ jolly time meeting Santa Paws in the Grotto and revealing their Christmas wishes at £2 for the entire family. There’ll be craft and gift stalls to help you fetch that perfect present for your four-legged friend or that extra-special human. Plus, they have a ‘barking’ good tombola, a raffle, and games for your entertainment!

If you are able to help, please send or drop off any donations to Dogs Trust Cardiff, Nettlefold Road, Cardiff, CF24 5JQ. Entry and parking are free on the day.
