Today saw memb.ers of the club travelling to the kennels of the Mildenhall Homefinders, to present them with a cheque for £800.00 - the amazing total we raised from this year's sponsored walk in September.
Representing the club - I made the following speech, on behalf of all the memb.ers of our club:
“On behalf of the Broadland Greyhound & Whippet Club – It gives me great pleasure to present a cheque to the Retired Greyhound Trust for £800.00.
This was the result of our club’s first sponsored walk, which was held at Sheringham Park, Norfolk, on Sunday 4th September.
We recognise the splendid work that is carried out by volunteers of the Retired Greyhound Trust, and especially those of the “Mildenhall Homefinders”.
We wish you continued success, and hope that our contribution will assist in helping to find your beautiful greyhounds some loving homes”.
Here's a couple of photo's from the afternoon.
