The Little LuLu Fundraiser

 ‘Lulu’ is a sassy little 2^nd Chance Rescue from Cyprus. She is going blind with a painful eye condition. Unfortunately her condition is at the stage where she needs a bilateral enucleation; in simple terms, these eyes disappointingly now need removing ASAP.

Earlier treatments this year, which were intended to save her sight, mean that she has reached the limit of her insurance. Kara has been hit hard financially by Covid and needs your help to fund this urgent and much needed operation- Lulu will be having her surgery next week.

As an experienced Pilates Teacher, Kara would like to invite you to her fundraiser events. The Little Lulu Fundraiser is aiming to raise some money to cover her veterinary bills. Any proceeds that are not used for Lulu’s care will be gifted to the 2^nd Chance Charity, to the ongoing work they do.
