Thank you to everyone who popped along to say hello at our Mother’s Day ‘meet and greet’ at Stewart Park, Middlesbrough recently. Don’t forget we’re at Stewart Park (next to the Farmers Market) on the last Sunday of every month – weather permitting.

Looking to read a new book and keen to help our hounds? Check out Lesley Webster’s ‘Memoirs of an Ordinary Psychic,’ which charts her life as a medium, healer and psychic. Through book sales Lesley is kindly donating money to GRACE.

After a few weeks of trying out his potential new home/sofa for size, we are pleased to report that Tag’s adoption became ‘official’ on Sunday 8 November. His fabulous Mum and Dad, Linda and Terry, are spoiling him with the love, hugs and kindness he truly deserves. As well as a regular run on the beach, he’s enjoying life on a very comfy sofa, warming himself by the fire and the odd frankfurter sausage!

A huge thank you to everyone who takes an interest in our small charity. Whether you pop along to our events to say hello; help out; make a donation; bring treats; hug our hounds; sign up to volunteer; take a leaflet to share with friends; bring bedding; show an interest; take the time to care; think about fostering or adopting – you are all stars!  

A special thank you to ‘handmade in the UK’ soft furnishing company Pins and Ribbons (www.pinsandribbons.co.uk). They have named their new greyhound silhouette fabric after one of our rescue dogs, Curtis.  Plus for every item bought in the ‘Curtis the Greyhound’ fabric they are donating 10% of the RRP to G.R.A.C.E!! You can buy the fabric by the metre, or order the Pins and Ribbons soft furnishings range, which includes lampshades, cushions and memo boards.
