We are continuing to support Anna and her team
at SOS Galgos in Barcelona. They have been
busy getting the kennels ready for more dogs to
arrive and also working hard on the
education area. School visits are
now being planned and we have been
pleased to be able to help with some
funding for this.

The area where the children will
sit outside needed to be fenced
securely and this has now been done.

The classrooms have been decorated
and we were able to fund some
chairs for the students and they
have recently arrived.

We are hearing from other shelters
now that they are making plans for
school visits again, these have
obviously not been possible during
the lockdowns. We are keen to help
promote the education project and Photos: SOS Galgos
reach more areas in Spain to
help educate the children
about the plight of the galgos
and change the perception
people have of these lovely
dogs.

We have produced a flyer in
English and Spanish to help us
promote this project. If you
would like copies to share
with your contacts please give
us a call on 01784 483206
and we can put some in the
post.

We have a new contact in
Alicante, Patricia, who is a
teacher. She is very keen to
promote the education
programme in her area.

We recently had a Zoom meeting with her to discuss the plans she has and
the support we can give. More news on this in our next newsletter.
