Wolfie’s Legacy have always aimed to benefit the public by providing interaction with canines, even when their circumstances may not allow them to own a dog. 

As with previous years we have attended several large events to educate people about disabled dogs. The highlight of our calendar is always Dogfest in June, where over two days there was a gate of thirty thousand plus. This is also a great opportunity to meet up with ex-Wolfie’s dogs, and some of them have been known to win an award or two whilst taking part, such as Albert who came 2[nd] in the best rescue, Well done Albert! 

**Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)** 


With the support of our local supermarkets, we continue to use this as a channel to reach further members of the public and introduce our dogs. Our aim is ultimately to ensure homes for the dogs, but we find some of the dogs make wonderful ambassadors for the charity, and so for a while they will work, to teach the public that there is a dog for everyone, and a keeper for all dogs. 

Trustees have regard to the guidance issued by the charities commission

Section D                      Achievements and erformance p 

**Summary of the main** Each year Wolfie’s Legacy endeavours to place dogs needing homes with people **achievements of the** who equally need a dog. **charity during the year** We continually hear of retired people who have lost the benefits of companionship through the workplace, say they would like a dog but are unable to exercise one. This is where Wolfie’s Legacy can help, so many of our dogs can live happily with just a garden for exercise, and they will provide the companionship required. Very often the dog becomes the most important thing in that person's life. For example, Annie, who lost her husband and was feeling scared and vulnerable, adopted DouDou who gave her a reason to get up in the morning (her words). Or Helen, a single parent whose daughter Sophie went away to University, Aaron filled her day becoming a child substitute. Dogs are a valued member of any family, but so much more so when they are needed. At Wolfie’s Legacy we consider our aim to be making a union between a needy dog and someone who needs a dog the goal. Our Facebook group "Wolfie’s Legacy" was also set up to provide a child friendly space for families to share their adopted dog and view others. Over the last year we have gained more followers on our Facebook page and this has become a valuable marketing tool for others to see what it means to own a disabled dog and what that dog could give them in return. Here they can post pictures, ask advice and share days out and holidays. It's surprising how well travelled a lot of our dogs are. **Lawless’s holiday to Norfolk**
