Our Electoral Council meeting went ahead on Saturday 29th June 2024. This meeting gave delegates the chance to vote for individuals' to join/re-join the Board of Directors.
We would like to congratulate our re-elected board members, Shelagh Heavens, Ian Macro, Rosemary Fisher, and Sandra Woodley; alongside our new Board Member, Ross Davies and reserves, Anna McEntee and Lesley Szwed. We also welcome Sally Rainbow-Ockwell, who has replaced John Hansson after he stepped down from his position.
We would like to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you to John, a past chair, for all of his contributions over the years. He will be very much missed.

⚠️ TECHNICAL ISSUES ⚠️
We are currently experiencing issues with our email provider which may be sending customers duplicate emails which were originally sent a few days ago.
We are aware of this issue, and it is currently being looked into.
We appreciate your patience on this matter and hope this issue will be resolved shortly.
GCCF has donated £33,730.76 for the Ukraine Appeal supporting Nowzad through donations and match funding from April 2022 to June 2024 💰
At the Governing Council of the Cat Fancy, we care deeply about the effect this was and still is having on the people and pets of Ukraine. Animals are the forgotten victims of war – they do not understand war or conflict, and we wanted to support the people of Ukraine as they had to flee their country, often with their beloved pets.
Through donations and collections at shows we have raised £14,365.38 which was matched pound for pound by the GCCF so we were able to send £33,730.76 (including our initial £5000.00 donation) to Ukraine to support their animals over the last 2 years.
We have now closed our donation page but you can still donate to the support via @nowzadrescue and @roldaorg directly.

Do you suffer with seasonal hayfever? 🍃🌼
Did you know our feline friends can also suffer? However, their symptoms may differ from those of humans!
BBC state that 'their seasonal symptoms may include tiredness (especially when the pollen count is high), shaking their head, reddened skin and excessive scratching or licking of paws'.
There are a few ways to eliminate suffering for your kitty!
🌼 When planning to venture outside, first check the pollen forecast - it is often a lower pollen count in the evening.
🍃 Wash your pet’s bedding and vacuum weekly as this will help remove any pollen that has built up from their trips outside
🌼 Never give them medication without a prescription.
These are just a few ways you can help, you can find out more via the PDSA website! 📰
