Mill Meadow and St Giles Animal Welfare Team Up to Help Four-Legged Friends 🐶

St Giles Animal Welfare

As the festive season approaches, many of us are preparing to gather with loved ones and enjoy a delicious Christmas dinner. But while we're indulging in our favorite holiday treats, it's important to remember the animals in need who may not experience the same joy.

St Giles Animal Welfare non-for-profit provides a safe and loving environment to animals who need help. Every animal deserves a second chance at their “happy ever after”, and that is what the team are dedicated to achieve.
Their love and dedication for the animals motivates and drives St Giles Animal Welfare forward.
They can only continue to fulfil this commitment to these animals in care, if colleagues, volunteers, followers, sponsors and donors continue to offer support.

The Mill Meadow family are huge animals lovers & want to show our support, so if you, are lovely guests, follower’s & future guests could read our blog below & feel able to
donate £5 to St Giles
“DONATE A CHRISTMAS DINNER TO A RESCUE IN NEED” campaign it would mean so much
Thank you 🐾🐾🐾
