Volunteering

There are many ways in which you can volunteer for Tail. If you live locally or are here on holiday we always need help:

• volunteering at one of our shops which are open Monday to Saturday 10.00 - 14.00
• volunteering at the refuge helping with cleaning
• help with socialising puppies, lead training and grooming
• walking dogs ( hours dependent on time of year), dogs to suit all levels of walkers
• fundraising and giving suggestions for events
• helping take photos of new dogs and pups
• anyone with DIY skills for building and repairs to kennels
• fostering dogs or pups on a temporary basis until we find permanent homes
• contacting organisations in your own country who would work with us

We have volunteers who live locally and even 2 to 3 hours a week help is very useful. There are also some "live in " volunteers at the refuge. They are provided with food and accommodation in return for caring for the dogs. We advertise for these volunteers through HelpX and Workaway. For more information contact us.

There are many items that can be donated to us:

• all types of clothes, books , furniture, electrical goods. Pick up can be arranged
• newspapers, leads, harnesses and collars, toys for the dogs
• cleaning materials and bin liners to help reduce our costs at the refuge
• towels, blankets and dog coats for winter
