Age UK Calderdale chief helps organise pug dog event
Lisa Butland, who is the Yorkshire Re-Homing Co-ordinator for PDWRA, helped ensure that some of the association’s pugs could visit DIGS Student Accommodation at Storthes Park Hall.
DIGS organise between 10 and 15 free activities each week to help the students settle into their new home.

Hide AdPDWRA is a charity which was established over 45 years ago and is run entirely by volunteers, so far this year they have helped over 380 pugs and spent over £202,000 on vet’s fees, so fundraising is vital to continue their work.
Lisa said: “It’s a great partnership with DIGS and lovely to be able to host an event on my own patch; the students happily take time out to enjoy walks with the pugs and cuddles while the owners get the opportunity to talk about our work and plan the next event.”
