Lucas Helps Dogs carries out spay, neuter and rabies vaccination clinics, along with emergency treatments to help the six million dogs living on the streets in Sri Lanka.
Founder Alena Warburton said: “We are so excited about this event. We held a successful Valentine’s event in February and this one will be bigger and better. We are really hoping lots of people and their dogs will turn out to support us. Every penny we raise is used to carry out our work in Sri Lanka.
“We have an employee and vet team on the ground who carry out our spay and neuter clinics, and the regular trips we make to carry out mass clinics are completely self-funded. It’s a real labour of love but these are such special dogs who live a life of misery on Sri Lanka’s dangerous roads.”
The afternoon will be split into two parts, from 3.30pm - 7pm and 8pm - late.
