'Pose with a nose' for animal sanctuaries
Conservationist Chris Packham is one of a number of celebrities lending their support to the Wetnose Day Appeal.
Funds raised will go to Wetnose Animal Aid.
People across the UK are being encouraged to 'pose with a nose' on Friday, 18 September and raise funds for the 2020 Wetnose Day appeal.
Noses cost £5 and the money raised will go to Wetnose Animal Aid to distribute to UK animal sanctuaries. Now in its 20th year, the event is supported by a host of media personalities, including Chris Packham, Tom Hardy and Paul McCartney.
The appeal is especially pertinent this year, given that animal rescue charities are facing an influx of unwanted animals as well as financial difficulties. To find out more or to make a donation, visit wetnoseanimalaid.com/wetnose-day

Two independent vets have launched a podcast to help owners strengthen their bond with pets. Dr Maggie Roberts and Dr Vanessa Howie, who have worked in both veterinary practice and major charities, are keen to use their experience to enable people to give pets a better life.
