British mum working to save Ukraine's abandoned pets from a 'scared and hungry death'

A British mum who spends her free time packing busloads of animal supplies bound for Ukraine says the donations are saving abandoned pets from a “scared and hungry death”.

Since the war in Ukraine began in March, Rebecca Renmant-Oliver, a mum and Finance Assistant from Rusper, has packed "four or five" minibuses to the brim with donated animal supplies.

The 56-year-old mum-of-one, who has a family and a job, collects everything from dog food to veterinary examination tables, to be distributed mainly in the Donbas region to help the thousands of animals displaced by the war.
