New Community Initiative to Support Local Dogs in Cranleigh

As the cost of living continues to rise, many families are finding it difficult to make ends meet, and unfortunately, this often impacts our beloved pets.

Recognising dogs’ crucial role as family members, The Dog Food Bank, a new Community Interest Company (CIC), has been established in Cranleigh to provide essential support for dogs in need.

Join the official launch of The Dog Food Bank at The Richard Onslow on Wednesday, June 26th, 2024, from 6 pm to 8 pm.

This special event will feature drinks and nibbles and the opportunity to connect with fellow dog lovers, local businesses, media, and community leaders. Dogs are, of course, welcome!

While this is an invitation-only event, we encourage attendance requests via our dedicated email address. Please RSVP by June 12th.

Starting after the launch, The Dog Food Bank will operate every Friday from 10 am to 11 am at The Richard Onslow, aligning with the Cranleigh Food Bank for community convenience.

The Dog Food Bank is grateful for The Richard Onslow’s generous support, whose commitment to local initiatives has made this possible.

Their mission is simple: fill hearts and bowls, keeping families and dogs together.

How It Works:

In-Person Collection Only: Visit us in person to collect dog food.

No Criteria or Judgement: We operate on trust, aiming to help every dog and owner without any conditions. Simply bring your dog(s) to meet us.

First Come, First Serve: We will provide supplies until they run out.

Weekly Supply: Each collection provides a one-week supply of dog food.

Their goal is to gather dog food from every possible source to support the well-being of dogs and their families. The Dog Food Bank aims to create a warm and friendly environment where every dog and their owner feels welcome.
