Sometimes long term neglect and poor kennelling is only too evident in dogs coming into Fen Bank.

Our vet bills are routinely well over £1,000 a month and we urgently need funds to keep on repairing the damage others have done to our dogs.Fen Bank Greyhound Sanctuary is a 100% charitable organisation. We rely on donations from visitors, friends and the general public.As a registered charity any donation made to Fen Bank can be worth 25% more simply by filling in a Gift Aid form – see below.We have added a PayPal donate button to the top of each page, so you can donate as much or as little as you like.

Gift Aid

Do you donate to Fen Bank Greyhound Sanctuary? Do you pay Income Tax or Capital Gains Tax?

If you can answer Yes to these two questions then why not complete a Gift Aid declaration. Signing up for Gift Aid allows the Sanctuary to reclaim the tax from HMRC which you will have paid on the money you donate.  There is no extra cost to you.

Through Gift Aid we are able to claim back around £5,000 in tax each tax year which is a valuable addition to our funds.

Apart from the income from our charity shops at Alford and Spilsby, donations are the charity’s only other major source of income and without these we could not exist.  Our thanks go to everyone who makes donations, whether it is a regular donation, kennel sponsorship or by being a Greyhound Friend – your gifts are very much appreciated.  Completing a Gift Aid declaration increases the value of your gift to us by 25 pence for every pound you donate.
