I’m voting for the bees. Celia Hammond seems very London-centric. So tired of everything being London centric.

Voted for the bees!
There should be more votes for the bees.

Hi Everyone

Thank you all for voting so far .

With regards to some of your comments around splitting the money 3 ways, Animal Friends would like to say this:

"Animals Friends have established relationships with all 3 of these amazing charities and we hope that by raising awareness of the wonderful work they do through this campaign we can help them all in attracting increased donations and acknowledgement of the work they do. We also aim to continue working with all 3 in the future after this campaign has ended"

Thanks

I voted for bees 🐝

It is the mist important of the three charities, think.

Is the white on the bee jar the level of support, or the table seen through the empty jar? 🐝

I would like the money split but as I love bees and we would have very little food without them they get my vote!

Bumblebees voted for over here. I hope they catch up, but streetvet is miles in front.

I voted bees! Poor bees 

Gosh it's a tough choice.. all three worthy charities. I guess a huge amount of £100k to a smaller organisation would be more beneficial. I'm going to give the underdogs a chance!

Street Vet gets my vote They are helping animals and their owners across the UK Amazing bunch of people They deserve to win

I voted for the bees! All seem worthy contenders though.

Street Vet please—
Having a vet as a daughter who sees these things first hand.

Being an animal lover myself I totally understand the emotional support having a pet can give, whatever your circumstances.

Celia Hammond OF COURSE. TCN from Celia has given more free vet advice on here for years than any MNetter has had hot dinners. You know what to do.

I'm voting for the bees. They are doing work in several areas of the UK so it seems more national than the other two charities.

Streetvet are way in the lead

Street Vet, because Winter is coming and Christmas will be very cold if you cant access a shelter because if your sick and dying dog.
All three are very worthy so it is difficult to choose.

*because you dont want to leave your sick and dying dog.

Streetvet is not a registered charity. I have had this confirmed in writing by Animal Health. Personally I think it is wrong of the company to imply that it is in their promotion.

How can they include an unregistered charity?

Hi @Coronapop @Wolfiefan

Thank you for your comments, Animal Friends would like to say this in response:

"This campaign is an opportunity for us to showcase our passion for animal welfare, whilst also driving awareness and support of the nominated animal welfare organisations. Street Vet were nominated by Vet Times, a media partner of ours for this campaign. A short while after the nomination process, we were made aware that Street Vet is not a registered charity but a non-profit organisation.

However their charitable registration application is in process and we are in close contact with them to follow this through as soon as possible. This has meant we have been able to launch the campaign without delay, allowing as much time as possible over the next few weeks to maximise awareness of all three nominated causes. If Street Vet should win then, once they have attained registration, they can access the donation"

Many Thanks

So they might win and get nothing? Yet again Animal Friends promises one thing and doesn’t deliver a bean.

Celia Hammond please. It’s all about the bees 🐝

Bees all the way for me too

Can anyone help me
