A message from Margaret Ray
It is with great sadness and regret that I inform you that myself and four of my colleagues feel that we have no alternative but to resign from the committee of KAR with immediate effect.
As you all know myself, and some friends, began KAR from nothing over 25 years ago and now we are leaving it with a beautiful well established animal shelter, home to over 200 dogs and cats, a fully equipped neutering clinic, thousands of pounds worth of assets in vehicles, equipment etc and a well established administration system, a healthy bank account and having cared, loved and tended thousands of animals over 25 years plus.
My colleagues, who have been great friends continue with their support , and are also retiring are:
Marian Clay (Treasurer) She has been helping KAR for 14 years. A few years ago she took over the Sponsorship project and looked after a number of collection and supermarket boxes.
Gwen Cassell (Secretary) She first volunteered at our Charity Shop 20 years ago and soon moved up to managing the shop. Over the years the number of shops increased to three. She also organized the highly successful Christmas Bazaars.
Dennise Aksoy. Who has also been helping KAR for 14 years. Managing ‘KAR Online sales’, She has sourced prices and advice of donations of value and managed House & Home shop.
Senem Burkuoglu. She has been with KAR for 8 years. She is a valued member of the shop team. She also acted as our translator and was a local media co-ordinator.
We have always been professional and, as such. leave with everything in order and with lasting memories. The knowledge, experience and qualifications in animal welfare move with us.
We would like to give our heartfelt thanks to all the friends we have made over the years, supporters, volunteers, veterinary personnel, officials, media and press and everyone that have supported us throughout.
