Animal Action Greece RETURN TO HYDRA
Our Equine Outreach team have been visiting the island of Hydra and treating its animals for over 10 years. But in 2020, we were forced to cancel the trip due to both a lack of funding and, of course, the outbreak of Covid-19.
WHERE WE WENT IN 2020
Despite 2020 being one of the most challenging years we’ve faced as a charity, we were still able to reach well over 1000 animals across Greece for veterinary care, sterilisation or treatment, including 817 cats, 205 dogs and 129 equidae (horses, donkeys and mules)…

Ultimate responsibility for this field should now sit with Frans Timmermans as Executive Vice President for a European Green Deal. Commission President-elect von der Leyen has today unveiled her proposed new team that will take office on 1 November. Whilst […]
‘Ghostly’ no more!
Her fluffy coat may give her a slightly fuzzy, phantom-like outline, but Melina is solidly there, and now in her forever home where she can enjoy the 100% real care that she deserves. She’s just one of the 50 “ghost dogs” that we sterilised last year. She had been particularly badly let down by humanity. […]
