@SoldierOnAwards @PetsatHome @Heropawsuk Woohoo!!!congratulations @Heropawsuk GET IN!! Now you need a lovely investor to get that sanctuaries built ๐๐๐๐
Thanks @BBCRadio2 and @theJeremyVine for highlighting @Heropawsuk. Their suppprters work hard to fundraise but will take too long to build an urgently needed sanctuary. We need investors who would love this project, just ยฃ1.5 mil ๐ ๐ Every day is another k9 veteran lost.
The biggest thank you to @soldieringonawards and @bbcradio2@thejeremyvine for having the dog boss on for a wee chin wag about the retirement welfare retreat for all forces dogs life after service
So grateful for @officialxforces Zoe, who was right by the dog boss side the whole time
After a couple of weeks of planning and scripts and epic journeys across the country nothing ever goes completely to plan but they all did amazing and there's true passion behind what the team at hero paws are creating and the fantastic team at soldiering on awards giving them the opportunity to get their story heard
The forces do an amazing job with what they have. Don't for a second think the majority of the handlers and trainers don't do everything they can to safeguard their dogs. However, we need more to take the pressure off and save more dogs. The horses trust exists for over 100 years, and now it's time to offer the same for our amazing dogs
A kennel free home for them to transition through or live out their days. Whatever their dogo hearts desire
Hero Paws have worked very hard around the clock to make this possible with their only support network being the general public and for that the unity of its family is the forefront of the forces dog charity and Hero Paws leads the way for life after service for our amazing retirees
Looking forward to an amazing event next week, but until then, it is back to the long slog of raising funds and support for the retirement retreat
WHOS WITH US
Thank you again each and everyone who's supported us and for the amazing network today โค๏ธ

Urgent help needed. So simple to help the military dogs who save lives. The Retreat is urgently needed. The clock is ticking... Any help spreading awareness gratefully received ๐
@rickygervais@BrewDogJames
Time to get serious people
We've got some great investors who've got our backs but 1.3 million is a lot to ask for
Please get the word out
So far since beginning this epic challenge part of our plans we've not been able to stop the destruction of 8 forces dogs
Please help us
@mikesjoyce_mike @Henry59lewis@Heropawsuk No! I speak to people about @Heropawsuk daily and no one understands that the dogs who protect us are not funded for retirement. There's no money in the MOD coffers for dogs.
BREAKING

Quote from report
"Between March 2020 to December 2021, Government awarded 22 contracts to Randox (or its strategic partner Qnostics Ltd) for its testing services, worth a maximum total value of ยฃ776.9 million. The Committeeโs inquiry into these contracts found numerous issues with the first contract โ failures in basic record-keeping; gaps in conflict-of-interest declarations; and wider procurement issues, such as a lack of senior scrutiny and sign-off. The DHSC also marked supplier offers as โVIPโ if they had been referred from ministers, MPs, or Number 10. These priority suppliers received ยฃ6 billion of the ยฃ7.9 billion of testing contracts awarded between May 2020 to March 2021.27 .The PAC has been asked by Parliament to examine the papers relating to government contracts for the supply of PPE by PPE Medpro which secured two contracts worth a combined value of over ยฃ200 million and is now the subject of an investigation by the National Crime Agency into potential fraud."

I have been requesting a debate on excess deaths for the last 5 months in our Parliament.
I will ask again next week, but there is mysteriously no appetite for it, despite it affecting every community and constituency in the country.
If the government was concerned about informing you of genuine emergencies, theyโd currently be telling you all about excess deaths and whatโs actually causing them.
Turn off the alerts.
