Little Wirral Wins ๐ŸŒŸ

The moral of the story for us is that we can't take moments of simple pleasures for granted, because most of our residents of people experiencing homelessness have been without them for long, long periods of time.

We are absolutely ecstatic about our work with The Dogs Trust! โค๏ธ

Together Through Homelessness is a programme to support those experience homelessness with their pet-care.

We at YMCA Wirral have been dog-friendly for some time ๐Ÿถ, but now with Dogs Trust, we can do our utmost to make this a safe and caring environment for dogs in our hostel. The free vet care will ensure that the pet owners in our hostel will be able to care for their dogs without any barriers ๐Ÿ’ช

Clay (pictured center with his tongue on his nose) gave Wendy from Dogs Trust a wonderful welcome to our YMCA, as the ambassador for all four-legged residents in our care ๐ŸŒป๐Ÿ˜‡
