Local law firm Thatcher + Hallam continued their tradition of delivering food to a local animal charity this Christmas. The team collects food donations for several weeks in the lead up to Christmas and this year the collection was donated to their Charity of the Year, Dogs Friends.

Organiser Julia Williams works in the Private Client team at the firm and said, "It's safe to say we are a team of animal lovers here and so every Christmas we like to try and do what we can to support a local animal charity. This is the fifth year we have done this and it's enormously rewarding to be able to deliver a car boot full of food and treats, especially so this year when charities have faced a really challenging year for fundraising."

Dogs Friends is a local charity, based in Somerset, which focuses on finding better homes for previously unwanted and unloved dogs. They help around 200 dogs a year.

Chair of the charity, Rose Peacock, said, "Many of our dogs are in foster care and so the donation from the team at Thatcher + Hallam means we've been able to support our foster carers and the dogs they are looking after with an extra gift of food this festive season. This has come at the end of a year when our usual fundraising efforts have been hugely affected by coronavirus and we are enormously grateful for this support."
