Reflecting on a Magical Evening: Tails & Tidings Christmas Carol Concert
On 13th December, we had the privilege of hosting our Tails & Tidings Christmas Carol Concert, and what an unforgettable evening it turned out to be!
We want to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude to each and every one of you who joined us for this special event. Your love of dogs, generosity, warm hearts and fine voices truly brought festive spirit to life.
A Celebration of Kindness
At its core, this concert was more than just an opportunity to gather and celebrate the season. It was a celebration of kindness, compassion, and the difference we can make when we come together for a common cause.
Your presence at the event, the merchandise you purchased and the donations you made will directly help improve the lives of the stray dogs around the world who need it most.
The Power of Community
We are beyond grateful to be part of a community that believes in the power of giving.
A sense of togetherness filled the air on the night; we are so lucky to be surrounded by people who share in our mission to make the world a better place for vulnerable stray dogs.
Your support enables us to continue our critical work—whether it’s providing essential sterilisation services to prevent overpopulation, improving the welfare of stray dogs through medical care and safe shelter, or educating communities worldwide on responsible pet ownership.
Together, we’re creating lasting change and empowering others to make a positive impact on the lives of dogs in need.
Moving Forward Together
As we reflect on the success of the Tails & Tidings Christmas Carol Concert, we are filled with gratitude. Gratitude for our supporters, for the volunteers who made the event possible, and for the countless dogs whose lives will be changed because of your generosity.
This festive season, we are reminded that the greatest gift we can give is the gift of kindness. Together, we’ve shown how much of a difference we can make. And as we look toward the new year, we are excited to continue this journey alongside all of you—bringing hope, comfort, and love to even more stray dogs.
Thank you once again for making this event such a success. Your support means the world to us, and to the stray dogs whose lives you’ve touched.
Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Paws and Posies at The Four Seasons
We had the absolute pleasure of going to the Four Seasons London at Ten Trinity to visit their new pop-up, Bloom – a dog-friendly summer roof-top lounge; where we had the honour of hosting our Paws and Posies event, alongside our sister company Wild at Heart.
The event was dedicated to raising awareness about the plight of the global stray dog population and highlighting ways to help ease the suffering of these stray dogs through sterilisation, education and welfare programmes.
Paws and Posies
Our Paws and Posies event was all about creating awareness of our work here at the Foundation alongside showing off the new Bloom roof lounge at the Four Seasons London. Nikki talked about our work and the importance of raising awareness for the 600 million stray dogs worldwide.
Dogs and humans alike enjoyed a variety of activities. The dogs enjoyed ‘pupcakes’ and ‘pawsecco’ and a doggy paddling pool to keep cool in the morning sunshine.
For the humans, there was a delicious brunch and a posy flower-arranging masterclass with our wonderful founder, Nikki Tibbles, where guests had the challenge of recreating the ‘Sweet Like Candy’ Foundation Bouquet, our charity bouquet, where 25% of the profits come to the Foundation.
We also had the pleasure of welcoming some special guests who thoroughly enjoyed everything that Bloom had to offer.
Bloom at Ten Trinity Square
The Four Seasons at Ten Trinity Square have transformed their Crown Residence into a stunning floral oasis in the heart of the city, in collaboration with our sisters, Wild at Heart. With outstanding views, beautiful cocktails and delicious food – and it’s dog friendly! Furthermore, the staff at The Four Seasons were incredibly helpful and accommodating. Who would have thought there was such a gorgeous dog-friendly location in the heart of London.
We really loved hosting this event and welcoming all our lovely guests. What an honour it was to be surrounded by the amazing Four Seasons Hotel and the incredible London Skyline. Furthermore, the beautiful Wild at Heart flowers really added to the stunning atmosphere.
Thank you to everyone who made this event possible. We already can’t wait for the next one and we hope to see you there.
