We are delighted and honoured to announce that Dr Marc Abraham OBE is to become the new Patron of Forever Hounds Trust. Marc’s support will be key to helping us raise awareness of the vital work we do in rescuing greyhounds and lurchers in need.
Marc is a veterinary surgeon, and a long-term supporter of Forever Hounds Trust. He campaigns extensively for animal welfare issues both in the UK and US; including promoting rescue pet adoption and responsible dog and cat breeding, as well as actively advocating to stop the cruel puppy farming industry. Marc is also responsible for three of the biggest pet welfare government e-petitions of all time and has spent years relentlessly lobbying MPs and Ministers in Westminster; he is also the co-founder and secretariat of the All-party Parliamentary Dog Advisory Welfare Group (APDAWG).
Marc is the author of four books: Vet on Call, Pets in Need, Lucy’s Law, and most recently #BeMoreMosquito, as well as writing blogs and articles to raise awareness of animal welfare across local and national media, plus sharing tips and pet advice on his X (Twitter) and Facebook channels. Marc has successfully collaborated with a whole host of household brands and events and is often invited to speak at public engagements.
Marc was awarded his OBE for services to animal welfare. We are thrilled to have a Patron so experienced in raising awareness of animal welfare and so passionate about making a difference to the life of the sighthounds, especially ex-racing greyhounds.
