Belinda & Terry

FOSTERERS, TRANSPORTERS, HOMECHECKERS, FUNDRAISERS, DESIGNERS AND PRINTERS

Belinda and Terry innocently enquired in 2007 about the possibility of adopting one of our dogs and very soon Millie joined their family. Bitten by the IRR bug, it was not long before Connie was adopted as a friend for Millie. Connie has now become a popular member of the Sponsor Dog team.

A few months later they agreed to transport and foster two sisters from a breeding farm. Surprise, surprise – one of the sisters stayed and became number three to join their family – Abigail.

Then, in 2009, they again helped with transporting and fostering three Goldies from another breeding farm and, having homed two of them, fell head over heels for the oldest…. so Stella is now the fourth (and they say final!!!!!!) member of the family.

All four girls could not be happier or more loved.

Luckily for IRR, Belinda and Terry love to make goodies for sale, including things like calendars, cards and note books. They also produce the programme for the Reunion as well as making lovely prize cards for us. There is absolutely no end to their talents.

EVEN MORE DUTIES TAKEN ON

If that were not enough, they were also in sole charge of our Photographic Competition as well as co-ordinating our Sponsor Dogs and other Fundraising activities.

After Pauline’s illness in 2010, Belinda also took on many of her jobs too and, by the time of her retirement, she was a Trustee, Hon Treasurer, Acting Hon Secretary, Gift Aid Organiser and even Website Editor.
