Causeway Coast Dog Rescue is holding an animal welfare conference in Parliament Buildings Stormont on 2nd October to discuss the issues experienced by charities and those in our communities. We aim to discuss some hard hitting topics such as the impact of experiencing animal abuse has to volunteers and their health and well being, the impact to animals through domestic violence and coercive control, how we need to protect and safeguard children in our communities from witnessing animal abuse, and ultimately how we can collaborate to improve the health and well being of all companion animals.
Northern Ireland has never before witnessed the calibre of speakers traveling from all over the United Kingdom and Ireland to discuss policy and legisaltion, aiming to share their experience of bringing forward animal welfare reform.
The conference is aimed at engaging and informing key stakeholders and decision makers: local goverment; DAERA; PSNI; councillors; MLAs; all political party representatives; and of course those who volunteer and work in animal welfare charities. Also attending will be some of our partnering agencies from Ireland as well as those from the UK.
Media are also invited to attend and observe.

Thank you for your support. Animal Welfare is not someone elses issue, its a public health issue.
