The wonderful staff there helped collect the money through the sale of pre-loved pet equipment such as beds, leads, bowls and toys that had been handed in by customers.

And it wasn’t just our group that was lucky enough to receive this amazing donation – our fellow Kirriemuir group received a similar amount thanks to the Thrums’ branch in the town.

Handing over the cheque to our new secretary Lori Gray were Thrums’ receptionist Lorna Andrew and Jack, a former RDA participant whose mum Irene Grant is also a receptionist at the practice.

Thank you for choosing us as your charity of the year – we and our ponies are very grateful!
