Longtails need loving homes
Spring Kennel Open Day raised £1947 *
Cranleigh Street Collection breaks £500 barrier *
We rescue, rehabilitate and rehome around 150 abandoned, sick or ill-treated greyhounds and lurchers each year at the Sun Valley Kennels near Guildford in Surrey. We were founded in 1970 after the late Celia Cross found her first abandoned greyhound which had been left to die in a disused barn. A registered Charity since 1993, we are small, independent and rely entirely on the fundraising activities of our supporters.
Sponsor our supporters Sarah and Phil on their 57 mile bike ride on 27 May
- The Celia Cross Greyhound Trust has been awarded Best Breed Rescue in 2011 and 2012 at the Burgess Wetnose Animal rescue awards
