Donating Your Money
Our hounds need many things while being cared for in the kennels, all of which cost money. As well as day-to-day expenses like food, the hounds also require medications, vaccinations along with extras such as treats and toys!

If necessary, we will pay for dental treatments. If there has been a previous injury which insurance will not cover, we will pay for any treatment relating to the injury should they occur once the dog is rehomed.
This means we always need more funds to cover the work we do.
Donating is easy – you can use the ‘Donate’ button, the QR code below, by text message or via Just Giving.
Text Greyhounds to 70085 – so if you want to give £5 text Greyhounds 5
Texts cost the donation amount plus one standard network rate message.

But if you would like to make it more personal and involving, here are some ways of helping:
Sponsor a Kennel
Sponsoring a kennel costs £50 for one year and £500 for a lifetime.

People sponsor kennels in memory of greyhounds they have loved and lost, to say thank you, to celebrate a birthday or to remember a special person who is no longer with them. Or for any reason that is meaningful to them.

Remembering us in Your will
Photo: Hippo 2
Legacies have helped us very much in recent years. Some have been a complete and wonderful surprise. We have been humbled by how important our hounds have been in the lives and families of their adopters, and how individuals have wanted their love for these dogs to be reflected in a gift after their death.
If you are considering remembering Homefinders in your will then please contact our Finance Trustee Ian Woodrow on 01493 378178 who will be able to provide you with relevant information. It is important that you take independent legal advice when making or changing a will.

Let’s be Practical
We have an Amazon Wish List which our Kennel Manager maintains – the link will take you to a long list of items we use at the kennels all the time – and of course a few treats!
