A dog walk was held yesterday to raise money for sanctuaries caring for abandoned animals and to raise awareness about cruelty to animals.
The event was organised by TV producer Nevise Borg Caligari and her husband Pierre Borg.
Scores of people walked their dogs from the Animal Welfare Department at Għammieri to Qormi.
Another fundraising event – a charity ride – will be held today from 9 a.m. at Luxol Grounds. The final destination is Ħaġar Qim Bar in Qrendi, where there will be a motorcycle show, music, food and a raffle.
Money collected from this ride will be handed out in voucher form, to be redeemed in pet food and medicine by sanctuaries and volunteers who are most in need.
Donations can be made by sending an SMS on 5061 7362 for €2.33 and on 5061 8073 for €4.66.
