The Official Launch of NMWDM
in the Houses of Parliament
The official launch of the National Military Working Dogs Memorial Charity will be launched in the Houses of Parliament, London on 19th June 2018. The Right Honourable MP David Hanson will be hosting the launch with many patrons, trustees, dignitaries and family members of the Hero Dogs will be in attendance.
The local Member of Parliament, Rt. Hon. David Hanson MP, is in full support of this campaign to see the new national memorial built. He is hosting an event in the Houses of Parliament on the 19 June 2018 to secure further support from the UK Government and other MPs and Peers
Representative from NMWDM said:
“The new national memorial is well overdue and look forward to being able to commemorate the service dogs who protected our Armed Forces over many decades.
“The interest we have had from the local community has been extraordinary. But we have also seen a fantastic response from the Armed Forces who are on board with the project. We are now in the process of raising the funds needed to complete the construction of mausoleum and would be grateful for donations – no matter what their size – to help us in commemorating our service animals.
“The stories of Buster, Theo, Judy and Lucky demonstrate just why a national memorial is needed. These dogs were dedicated to their partners and would do anything to ensure that their Armed Forces partners were kept safe.”
Rt. Hon. David Hanson MP said:
“When I first heard of this memorial I was struck that it has taken this long for someone with the dedication and passion to see it come into being. The work of all those making this national memorial become a reality is truly inspiring.
“I have arranged an event in Parliament and invited the Secretary of State for Defence to attend. I hope the Government will see what an excellent plan this is and support it to the fullest.
“Brynford is such a beautiful part of the country and I cannot think of a more fitting place for a new national monument to be built.”
