In the charity's own words
We are an independent charity run by a bunch of dedicated volunteers and Greyhound owners. HGRC is self-funded and relies on the generosity of supporters who love Greyhounds. Many of the dogs we get have been gifted in by their owners or found abandoned. Hull Greyhound Rescue has a charity shop for sales of donated goods including dog supplies and in normal times arranges fundraising events.
