As schools are reopening here
      and abroad we hope that the     It can cost between
      education project will be       £36 and £60  to test
      able to start again.
                                       one galgo for the
      We have had some nice             Mediterranean
      comments from parents                diseases
      who have been downloading
      some children’s activities
      from our site during lockdown.
      We included a couple of pages in
      our last newsletter for your children, grandchildren to complete and were
      pleased to receive some completed sheets back.  We include a Christmas page
      in this newsletter (page 15) which you may like to give to your children,
      grandchildren.  All completed pages returned to us by 12th December will
      receive a prize in time for Christmas.

      It has been strange for us not having any events to organise this year, we
      had lots of plans at the beginning of the year but events were postponed.
      We now look forward to next year when we hope things will be better for
      everyone.

      We would like to take the opportunity to thank many of our supporters who
      came up with different ways to help fundraise.  Some grew plants in their
      gardens to sell to neighbours, some put items on eBay to sell to raise funds
      and many of you supported our appeal for food donations for the galgos in
      Spain, raising nearly £4,000.  We were therefore able to offer this help to
      Galgos del Sol, Galgos en Familia, Arca de Noe and SOS Galgos.

      We mentioned in our last newsletter about an event at Buscot Park but this
      has been postponed now until next year.   Please keep looking at our website
      and Facebook pages as we will post on there news of events as and when these
      are booked.

      We enclose our latest merchandise catalogue and hope you will take a look and
      find some gifts for you and your four legged friends,   We have more items
      and some limited stock items on line https://greyhoundsinneed.co.uk/eshop/

      It just remains for me to say a very big THANK YOU to all of you, our
      supporters and volunteers, without the support you have given us over the
      years, especially this last year, we would not have been able to achieve what
      we have for the lovely greyhounds and galgos.

      Please take care, keep safe and hopefully soon life will get
      back to normal for us all.   I wish you, your families and your
      dogs a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
