Nowzad UK has a new home!
12 November 2022

When we asked for donations of food and medical supplies to support the animal shelters in Ukraine caught up in Putin’s horrific and illegal invasion we had no idea of the amazing response we would receive.

For a while we were, to put it mildly, overwhelmed.  

Within weeks of the appeal launching we had enough supplies for several large lorries to be loaded and sent on their way to Poland.

It’s been another heavy week here in Kabul. Our team is currently celebrating the Islamic festival of Eid but, with more attacks on the city, the tension is palpable. Thank goodness though - Dr Reshad, his team and all our precious rescue animals are safe. Thank you so much to everyone for asking about the situation and how they all are. But... all are feeling the weight of the ongoing crisis and it’s hard for us here in the UK not to feel helpless sometimes :( Even in the toughest times th

Remember Blue? We first introduced you to this sweet boy back in December, and today, we are absolutely delighted to share an update on beautiful Blue! After his devastating accident, Blue’s road to recovery looked long and uncertain. The impact was severe, causing significant injuries to his internal organs — specifically his lungs — which required careful monitoring and X-rays to track the damage. He also struggled with a painful tear in her upper palate that made the simple act of eating a d
