The story

Two Sundays. A shared effort.

I love dogs and have Staffies of my own, so this was something close to my heart. Bringing it together was a shared effort. Angela was my main QSAR contact, Deb helped organise the details and volunteers, and Jade at Biggies Raw Pantry provided the location and rallied her customers and followers.

Volunteers lent Christmas trees, dressed as Santa and helped the days run smoothly. The first Sunday featured a Christmas market with other local businesses. The second offered a quieter setting for dogs who needed more space.

The moments & the making.

Afterwards, I delivered the photo galleries, while Deb arranged and hand-delivered the printed Christmas cards. There were plenty of hours of organising and creating behind it all. Any hiccups, we simply found a way.
