    Mayhew launches 2019 Annual Review

    Today, we have published our Annual Review and Report for 2019.

    The end of 2019 marks the end of the decade, so this review explores not only Mayhew’s impact in the last 12 months, but also how much has changed across the years – and how we are continuing to adapt and deliver for the cats, dogs and communities who need us.

    This year, we have put together an online version of our review that highlights some of the amazing achievements of our teams. From the benefits of animal assisted intervention to vaccinating over 7,000 dogs from rabies with just one campaign – read all about how Mayhew has made an impact to the lives of both animals and people.

    As well as looking at all of the ways in which Mayhew makes a difference to the lives of both animals and people, our Patron, The Duchess of Sussex, has provided a foreword for our review. 

    “As I write, the Covid-19 crisis is gripping every country in the world and destabilising the lives of countless families across the UK. I am proud of how Mayhew have responded by finding new ways to support animals and people in these uncertain times. What I am even prouder of is that Mayhew’s mission was made for moments like these. It’s not just about cats and dogs; it’s about all of us, about our ability to come together as a community. In the wake of Covid, we are reminded that our need to take care of one another is a vital part of the human spirit. Mayhew has always understood this.

    Mayhew’s work providing animal care and veterinary services to the pets of the homeless community and other at risk groups not only keeps the animals safe; it also makes people more resilient. The TheraPaws animal assisted intervention programme delivered to nursing homes, elderly wards, mental health centres and beyond promotes physical, social and emotional wellbeing. Mayhew’s temporary fostering programme, Pet Refuge, is more important than ever, with more people unable to afford to care for their animals until they can get back on their feet. And of course, the international neutering and vaccination programmes protect dogs while helping to empower struggling communities to build a more positive relationship with the animals that live among them.

    I would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all of the volunteers, staff and students at Mayhew. As an expression of my own commitment, I renewed my sponsorship of a dog kennel in the name of our son, Archie, to create an interim home for a pet in need. I hope you will show them your support in whatever ways you can. When you do, you will be contributing not just to animal welfare but to the shared welfare of us all.”
