Wigan animal charity scoop top award which sees all their dogs fed for an entire year

A Wigan-based animal charity who cares for abandoned greyhounds has won a prestigious award that will see the animals in their care fed for an entire year. The prize comes as a lifeline for the charity, covering one of their largest overheads amid the cost of living crisis.

Of the six charities nominated for the Burns Charity of the Year Award, the pet food company selected Makants Greyhound Rescue, in Mort Lane, Tyldesley, as the worthy winners.

The prize - tailored to the needs of the charity - will see Makants Greyhound Rescue receive ongoing support from the pet food company, including meeting all feeding needs for their four-legged residents for an entire year.
