Greenacres Animal Rescue has received a major fundraising boost after its recent Fun Day and Dog Show in St Clears raised more than £5,000 to help care for vulnerable and abandoned animals across the local area.
The event, which took place on 10th May 2026, brought together supporters, local businesses and members of the community to raise vital funds for the charity’s ongoing rescue and rehabilitation work.
A total of £2,584.84 was raised on the day, with the figure then matched by the Benefact Group through the support of Lloyd & Whyte Community Broking, bringing the overall fundraising total to £5,169.68.
The funds will help Greenacres Animal Rescue meet the growing costs of caring for animals in need, including veterinary treatment, rehabilitation, food, and other essential welfare expenses. The funding will directly support the charity’s ongoing efforts to provide safe shelter, care and second chances for vulnerable animals within the local community.
A spokesperson for Greenacres Animal Rescue said:
“We’re honestly blown away by your generosity and support.”
Greenacres Animal Rescue has become a valued part of the local community, providing refuge and care for animals that have been abandoned, neglected or require rehoming. The charity relies heavily on donations, fundraising activities and volunteer support to continue its important work.
Among those supporting the event were representatives from Lloyd & Whyte Community Broking, which has proudly supported Greenacres Animal Rescue for several years as its chosen charity partner.
Colleagues Stephen Vale, Yvette Llewellyn, and Lauren Davies attended the event, helping to support fundraising efforts and celebrate the work carried out by the charity across the local area. Through its parent company, Benefact Group, Lloyd & Whyte Community Broking was also able to secure matched funding for the event, doubling the amount raised on the day from £2,584.84 to £5,169.68. The business has previously helped Greenacres access charitable funding and remains committed to supporting organisations that make a positive difference within their communities.
Stephen Vale from Lloyd & Whyte Community Broking said:
“Greenacres Animal Rescue has been our chosen charity for several years and we’re incredibly proud to support the vital work they do for vulnerable animals in our community. The dedication of the Greenacres team is inspiring, and it’s fantastic to see local people come together to help raise funds that will directly support the charity’s ongoing rescue and rehabilitation work.
As part of Benefact Group, giving back is central to who we are, so being able to support Greenacres through fundraising and matched funding initiatives is something we’re passionate about.”
The success of the event highlights the strength of community support for Greenacres Animal Rescue and demonstrates how local businesses, charities and residents can work together to make a lasting difference for animals in need.
