Prior to Lynne joining our Board, she was (and still is) a long-term volunteer dog walker and has assisted us with events and fundraising. Lynne spends more time at the Dogs' Refuge Home than she does at home and whilst she doesn't have a dog at home, Lynne treats all of our homeless hounds as if they are her own.
