Welcome to the latest blog by Friends of Wallace Kennels (FOWK). We recently held our AGM and there have been a few changes we’d like to update you on.
The wonderful committee at FOWK have worked tirelessly over many years to establish the charity and provide support for many rescue dogs that have passed through Wallace Kennels Dog Rescue in Brentwood. Unsurprisingly, after all this hard work, both Margaret (secretary) and Josie (treasurer) are ready to take a well deserved retirement from their roles on the FOWK committee and stepped down at the AGM. We would like to say a massive thank you to Margaret and Josie for everything they have done for FOWK and we wish them a well earned rest and happy retirement.
Moving forward Charlotte has been elected as the incoming treasurer and myself as the incoming Secretary,. As such we are currently in a period of change, as information is updated, so please bear with us. We are hoping to use this time to make some changes within FOWK, such as updating the website as amore user friendly platform of information, promoting and increasing membership and raising the profile of FOWK.
We are also lucky enough to have been approached by a lovely member of the public, Charley, who is going to be taking on the 3 PEAKS challenge in June. She has kindly nominated FOWK as the charity she would like to raise funds for. We are in the process of setting up a Just Giving Page to enable Charley to make her fundraising easier to manage. We look forward to sharing more details about this soon and we can hopefully get Charley to complete a blog about the event for us too. What an amazing thing to do…. good luck Charley!
