I am currently working with Marta of ADANA in Badajoz on producing an
information leaflet which will be used when talks are given to groups of
Spanish adults about galgo and animal welfare. The leaflet will advise on what
to do if a lost, injured or abandoned animal is found, what constitutes cruelty
and will highlight cruelty cases which have resulted in legal action being taken
against the owner. Sadly, this type of information is still very much needed in
some rural parts of Spain. The leaflet will also give information about GIN,
its education programme in Spain and why there is a need for collaboration
between GIN and ADANA and charities in other countries where the level of
animal welfare is much higher than in Spain. The leaflet will be produced
quarterly and we hope it will also be taken up by other Spanish shelters
highlighting their needs as well.

Producing this leaflet is no mean feat for two
publishing novices but when it comes to galgos
and animal welfare, we will turn our hand to
anything!!

Ricky Gervais, one of our wonderful Patrons has
kindly created a design and signed by him to go
on GIN T-shirts and here he is modelling it!!
Thank you, Ricky. Handsome chap!!

Once again, we would like to thank our donors,
supporters and followers for their continued
support and generous donations
during what has been and still is a
very challenging time for everyone.
A Thank You is never big enough.

In order to keep our staff and
volunteers safe during the pandemic
we had to close Head Office and
everyone had to work from home.
Carolyn, Tracey and the volunteers
did a fantastic job of keeping
everything going remotely until the
office could be reopened in July. Our Patron, Ricky, with friends
Martin, Trustee, and his wife Angela
GIN has a wonderful and dedicated
team at Head Office and we are truly grateful to you all.

As the saying goes, “Adopting a galgo or greyhound won’t change the world but
the world will change for that galgo or greyhound.”

Keep well and safe.

Christine
