Skoda renews partnership with Dogs Trust
Car brand Skoda has renewed its partnership with Dogs Trust as the official vehicle supplier to the charity, which will involve the addition of a Yeti and an Octavia Combi to the charity’s existing fleet of Skoda vehicles.
Dealers nationwide will also undertake fundraising activities for Dogs Trust throughout the year.
The first one is ‘Pooch in the Park’, a free 4K family dog walk on 24 August in Corkagh Park in Clondalkin, organised by Skoda’s West Dublin dealer Pilsen Auto.
As Ireland’s largest dog welfare charity, the core function of Dogs Trust is to reduce the number of stray dogs that are destroyed in Irish pounds each year and to educate the public about canine care.
Since opening its re-homing centre in Finglas, Dublin in November 2009, it has helped to save the lives of over 5,500 stray and abandoned puppies and dogs.
Ciara Walsh, marketing communications manager, Skoda Ireland said: “Members of the public can make a donation to Dogs Trust by visiting their local Skoda dealership. We’ll be posting regular updates to facebook.com/skodaireland about local fundraising initiatives throughout the year.”
