Bramble's Pet Food Bank, a small local community initiative that provides food for pets in need, is running low on donations. Bramble’s Pet Food Bank is struggling to keep up with the demand for food, and is in desperate need of help from the community.
Jo Butler, founder of Bramble's Pet Food Bank says:
"We simply don’t have enough food on our shelves to support people that so desperately need our help and who are struggling to feed their pets. This is heartbreaking, as we know how much pets mean to their families."
Bramble's Pet Food Bank relies on donations from individuals and businesses to provide food for pets in need. At this current time the pet food bank is facing a critical shortage of donations and it simply doesn’t have the food to meet the demands from people needing help feeding their pets.
The community initiative, based in Southway, is currently accepting donations of dry and wet dog and cat food, as well as treats and toys in the lead up to Christmas.
Jo adds: "We have seen a significant increase in the demand for our services in recent months. Any donation, no matter how big or small, can make a big difference. We are so grateful for the support of the community."
