Animal People Alliance, a project co-founded by the singer Belinda Carlisle has launched in the UK to raise funds for Animal Welfare in Kolkata, India. Fundraising this year is seeking to buy an animal ambulance to prove a shelter with the ability to treat animals in the neighbourhood and on the road, thus minimising the number of animals taken to the already overturned shelters.

Her Future UK, seeks to support her Future Coalition mission, and to provide shelter, education and high wage employment to survivors of human trafficking and extreme abuse. They engage in long-term, intensive interventions. Their programmes give survivors the tools to overcome tremendous stigma and to advance far beyond the poverty line, transforming their identity and social status.
