As you may know, I (Jo) am the Project Coordinator for IAPWA's work in Romania, a cause that both Dougal and I are passionate about. In September this year, we'll be joining a group of IAPWA supporters on a trek in Transylvania to raise funds for this project. The trip itself will be self-funded, so 100% of the money we raise will go directly towards helping the dogs!

The money raised will be used for the ongoing running costs of a new mobile clinic which we will be launching in Romania this year. The mobile clinic will be fully equipped to spay and neuter dogs (and cats!) and will be able to reach animals in more rural areas, as well as providing animal welfare education to local pet owners. This will be our first step towards improving animal welfare in Romania as a whole in an ambitious long-term project plan.

There are still places available to join us on this amazing trip, email sophie.rooney@iapwa.org for more information!
