Buy-A-Brick - and be remembered in the Stokenchurch Dog Rescue Patio of Fame Stokenchurch Dog Rescue has a touching way of remembering a cherished pet dog - or a human relative or friend - in the grounds of its kennels. This small local charity helps care for the abandoned, unwanted and abused dogs in our area whilst finding them loving new homes. The day to day running costs required to enable SDR to care for our sick, unwanted and abandoned dogs are constantly rising, and the charity endeavours to provide them with the best care possible. This often entails vital but costly veterinary treatment and other costs. So, if you’re a dog lover and want to help SDR, what about this idea? By contributing to its Buy-a-Brick Appeal you will be helping to maintain a high standard of care, whilst dedicating a permanent memorial to a relative, friend or much-loved pet. The idea is to pay for an engraved brick with a choice of sizes and it will be added to an ever increasing paved patio outside the kennels’ main doors. Many of the names in the patio remember lost much loved pets but there are other options. The Patio of Fame is not purely for the sad occasions when you remember those we have loved and lost. Your brick can be inscribed with the name of your company, school, club or society or, for the person who has everything, what a unique present to have a “Birthday Brick” inscribed with their name. Perhaps it can mark a milestone wedding anniversary or maybe congratulations to a relative or friend on a specific achievement. Or even just a simple “Thank You” for a special act of kindness. The possibilities are endless! The costs for an engraved brick are as follows each line of inscription is limited to a maximum of 16 characters. £37 for a single brick with up to two lines of inscription or £87 for a double brick with up to four lines. Then there’s a £150 double brick with a maximum of six lines. Other options are £500 for joint sponsorship of an outside exercise run plus a commemorative plaque or £1,000 for sole sponsorship for an outside run with plaque. More expensive options are also available. It’s probably best to first take a trip to the kennels to see the patio of bricks. To discuss your individual options in further detail please contact SDR’s Buy a Brick Appeal Manager, Mrs Chris Gates, on 01844 352447, or email [email protected].
