Sadly the Hope Rescue Charity Shop has been affected by the horrendous flooding across South Wales caused by Storm Dennis. The River Taff burst its banks and Taff Street was under water.

The Charity Shop does an amazing job raising funds for the Rescue Centre, and without this additional income stream we may have to turn away vulnerable dogs that need our help. Sadly it doesn't look like we will be able to open the shop again very soon as the flood waters contain dangerous contaminants which will need specialist cleaning and the plasterboard and shop-fittings are soaked with contaminated water.

They raise over £9,000 every month which enables us to care for around 22 rescue dogs. So the prospect of closing for up to three months to refit the shop is devastating.

So we are asking for your help to ensure that the dogs at the rescue centre won't miss out while we get the shop back up and running.

Please contribute what you can, or you can set up your very own fundraising page to ask for donations from your friends, family and colleagues.
