It was such a brilliant night! The room was absolutely buzzing with energy, the quiz was a blast, and it was a real joy to share the latest news about our missions.
We kicked off the evening with updates on our work in Ukraine. Pen spoke about the Sterilisation Programme, and our dedicated supporters will know we are in the process of converting an ambulance into a mobile veterinary clinic to send to Ukraine! We keep fighting rabies by vaccinating animals and, of course, continuing to deliver food to the most dangerous areas, supporting both the animals and their courageous carers.
Next, Pen shared the latest updates from Kabul. It has only been a few months since we relocated our Nowzad Hospital and Donkey Sanctuary, and we loved sharing the progress with you.
Seeing all those happy faces was the very best part of the evening. We then held the most enjoyable quiz possible, and thank you all for taking part so enthusiastically!
And thank you, too, to everyone who dropped by the office for a chat and joined the wonderful walk with us along Exmouth beach. What a perfect, lovely end to the whole event!
💖 You're Genuinely Saving Lives
The support you showed this weekend was genuinely amazing. It means the world to the whole team, and honestly, it’s what keeps us going.
We are especially grateful for:
- Your kindness and generosity: Every ticket bought, every item brought, and every pound you donate goes straight to feeding, treating, and saving animals in need. You’re truly a lifesaver!
- All the donations you brought for Ukraine, the Raise 4 Nowzad Auctions, and the Nowzad Charity Shop.
- Our amazing volunteer team: A huge shout-out to everyone who helped us pull the event off, setting up, running the raffle, and keeping everything going. We just couldn't have done it without you! 🙏
The atmosphere was truly special, with so many dogs joining us across all the events! We appreciate you bringing your friends and letting them share in the Nowzad social life. 🐾
Thank you again for your incredible warmth and for standing by the Nowzad animals.
We'd love to hear what you thought! Please email us at events@nowzad.com with any feedback or suggestions you have for the theme of next year's event.
We can't wait to catch up with you at the next one!
Best wishes and massive thanks from us all,
The Nowzad Team
