For most of the last year the shelters have been
     unable to have school visits or go to schools to talk
     to the children.  The activities from our education
     website

           https://eduction.greyhoundsinneed.co.uk

     have continued to be been downloaded which is good
     news.   Some groups in Spain are hoping they can
     have summer camps for the children this year.

     We have been able to fund the building of some mini kennels at Galgos del Sol
     in Murcia.    Tina and her team rescue many galgos in and around their area and
     work tirelessly to give them every chance to recover from their ordeals and
     have the chance of life in a home.

           Galgos del Sol—2015              We have supported Tina for some
                                            years now and on our second visit in
                                            2015 we were able to visit the site of
                                            the new shelter, it was huge and work
                                            had just started on the first kennel
                                            block.  (photos left)


                                            Over the years we have continued to
                                            support the work of Tina and her
                                            helpers with funding for initial
                                            veterinary costs, education grants
                                            etc and also been able to take some
                                            galgos from her for homing here in
                                            the UK.


                                            Our new group will be coming from
                                            Galgos del Sol and you can see more
                                            details of this lovely group of 15
                                            galgos on pages 16-18.


                                            We heard from Tina earlier this year
                                            that the final project at the shelter
                                            was to provide two day parks for the
                                            galgos, two areas at the far end of
                                            the site, away from the kennels where
                                            the dogs could spend the day and
                                            chill out with each other and the
                                            volunteers.
