The sacrifice of animals in times of war, from the loyal service dog to the innocent stray, is a theme that resonates deeply, particularly for Nowzad. This year, the solemn tradition of remembrance took place in two poignant settings, connecting historical battles with modern-day challenges.

On the 20th November 2025 at 7.15pm at the Etna Community Centre in Twickenham, Pen will be delivering his punchy 'truth' only account of operation Ark and the chaos and lies that followed it.

Two horses, Beauty and Grace, were recently rescued by Nowzad from the local brick kilns, where animals are often pushed far beyond their physical limits. Both now reside safely at Maverick’s Sanctuary, beginning their journey toward a peaceful future.
