Hidden Lives
Woodgreen are tackling the UK’s hidden pet welfare challenges unfolding quietly in homes and communities.
Across the UK, there are a growing number of pets and their people in need of support but silently struggling.
Our Hidden Lives research has uncovered the hidden reality for many: even where pets are deeply loved, if life becomes challenging it can become harder to ensure good pet welfare.
However, to animal welfare charities, these situations often remain unseen.
Woodgreen is leading the development of evidence, insights and solutions to tackle this problem, bringing together organisations and individuals ready to help shape what comes next.
If you’d like to join us in ending the hidden pet welfare crisis, sign up to email updates below to be kept in the loop.
At Woodgreen, we know that rescue goes beyond shelter and rehoming, and into supporting pets and their people before they reach crisis point. Over the past year, we’ve carried out a programme of research with pet owners and community professionals, to understand the challenges facing pets and their owners and the barriers that prevent them seeking help.
