K9 Search and Rescue NI were delighted to be invited to London last week to attend a fantastic charity dinner hosted by Serve On at the prestigious Cavalry & Guards Club.
The evening brought together supporters, volunteers, veterans, business leaders and emergency response professionals from across the UK in support of Serve On’s incredible work both nationally and internationally.
The event was a tremendous success, raising vital funding to support Serve On’s volunteer training and operational capabilities. Guests enjoyed an evening filled with inspiring stories, generosity and a shared passion for humanitarian and emergency response work.
It was particularly inspiring to hear from members of Serve On’s International Response Team and trainees, whose stories highlighted the dedication, resilience and commitment required to support communities during disasters and emergencies around the world.
K9 Search and Rescue NI would like to thank Serve On for the invitation and hospitality throughout the evening. It was a privilege to spend time with colleagues and friends who share the same ethos of volunteer service and community support.
A special mention must also go to the charity raffle and auction which certainly proved popular on the night — and we remain especially grateful to our friends at Serve On for helping keep quiet exactly how much our Deputy Team Leader spent… particularly from his wife!
Events like these are a reminder of the strength of the search and rescue community and the importance of organisations continuing to work together, support one another and build strong relationships across the sector.
We look forward to continuing our friendship and cooperation with Serve On in the future.
