In March 2018 the Petplan Charitable Trust awarded SNIP International a third consecutive welfare grant for £2000. The grant was again match-funded by SNIPi, giving a total of £4000 used to fund TNR/CNR equipment for Polish animal welfare groups at ICAWC Krakow this year.

Fifteen groups received equipment through Project Poland, eleven of these were national branches of TOZ (Towarzystwo Opiek Nad Zwierzetami w Polsce) which is the Polish equivalent of the RSPCA. The four independent groups that applied all received a large equipment donation whilst the TOZ branches each received a smaller donation.

SNIPi will continue to evaluate the effect of the equipment donations over the coming 2 years.

All three Projects, Croatia 2016, Cyprus 2017 and Poland 2018, have been a tremendous success. Many thanks again to Petplan for their support in these exciting projects.

We plan to run Project TNR Malta at ICAWC later this year!
