It provides a place of safety for animals in danger, educates on the need for neutering both pets and strays and to neuter stray dogs and cats to prevent the birth of more on the streets.

Founder and event organiser at Miracle's Mission, Victoria Bryceson, said: “It was pouring down with rain, freezing cold and I assume some people were worried to come because of Covid.

“But we did our best and I am pleased it went ahead as we raised nearly £3,000 for the dogs.”

Miracle’s Mission, is currently looking to build the UK’s first centre for disabled animals, so Victoria and her team can rehabilitate the most vulnerable, before finding them their forever homes.
