Thank You for Supporting Our Easter Event!
We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who supported and attended our Easter Event at Danaher Animal Home on Saturday, 19th May. Thanks to your incredible generosity and a record number of attendees, the day was a resounding success!
Our amazing volunteers organised a fun-filled Easter Egg Hunt for the little ones, which allowed visitors to explore all areas of Danaher Animal Home – meeting our small animals, wandering through the cattery, and passing by our dog kennels. At the end of the trail, young explorers were rewarded with a well-deserved Easter egg in our Meet and Greet room.
It was a brilliant day, full of activities for all the family. Children enjoyed getting creative at the crafting table, producing their Easter masterpieces, while visitors sampled delicious homemade cakes and savoury snacks. We also hosted a pop-up charity shop stall featuring items from our five Danaher Charity Shops, a toy sale, and a range of interactive raffles, tombola's, and competitions. Guests even had the opportunity to meet our resident bunnies, Sassy and Snowball, for cuddles and an informative chat with their handlers — we hope you enjoyed spending time with them!
Thanks to your wonderful support, Danaher Animal Home raised over £2,000! We are incredibly grateful to everyone who attended, as well as to our hardworking staff and volunteers, who helped to make the day such a success from start to finish. We have even more exciting events coming up soon – join us for our Danaher Fun Dog Walk and Pet Jumble Sale on Sunday, 18th May, and don't miss our Open Day on Saturday, 31st August. We look forward to seeing you there!
