News Update

Dear Friends,

We hope you will enjoy reading this newsletter
and catch up on our work over the last 6 months.
We feel that we are getting back to normal
in the office now and it is nice to be looking
forward to our next group of galgos, including
Ady (right) arriving soon —more details on pages
18-19. We are all getting excited to meet them
and are grateful to local supporter Sue who will
be able to help again with their homing.

We are also pleased to be able to fund some
projects in Spain that have been on hold due to
the pandemic—more news on pages 12-16.

We would like to thank everyone who took part in our Christmas raffle, this
was the first time we have organised a raffle at Christmas and it proved
popular. Our Trustee, Geraldine Jones, kindly drew the winning ticket for us,
and Mr Chivers in Surrey was the lucky winner of a luxury hamper.

Our Christmas treats appeal is always popular
and this raised £1,800. The shelters have
asked me to thank you all for your kind
donations which provided many galgos with
some extra special treats at Christmas time.

The caption competition in our last newsletter
was also popular and we had many giggles in the
office when we opened the post—thank you to
everyone who took part, we will look out for
more photos to include in our next newsletter
as many of you have asked about this.

In this newsletter we enclose
a competition for children—a
word search which is one of the The Galgos have found
resources on our education the treats !
website. These are available in
English and Spanish and can be
downloaded from the site.

The prize will be one of our new water
bottles (photo left).
