Those of you planning events this year who subscribe to Pet Trade World http://pettradeworld.com/ may be interested in a feature on page 17 ‘NPM 21 years of celebrating pets and people’. They also have a feature on organising a pet event on page 40. If you are planning an event during April-May don’t forget to register it with us. 

Become a National Pet Month supporter at: http://www.nationalpetmonth.org.uk/portal/admin/create-account.php then you can request an event pack. The website is filled with great ideas on what you can do. Last year we had a vast array of events (over 450!) including church service for pets, a super sponsored slim down, quizzes, fun days, open days and owl displays, rabbit talks, sponsored walks, 5K runs & doggie swim-a-thons.

We look forward to hearing what you are all planning this year. Keep in touch and please add your events to the website. It lets us and everyone else know what you’re planning and generates interest in your event whilst promoting responsible pet ownership. Don’t forget our website also has some great resources for schools http://www.nationalpetmonth.org.uk/schools/index.php .
