This event at St Oswalds Church is organised by Ashbourne Animal Welfare.

A special service of thanksgiving for the pleasure and companionship that our pets give to us.  The service will be on Sunday 7th December 2025 at St. Oswald’s Church in Ashbourne, starting at 2pm.  

We really hope you will come along (dogs are of course welcome in church as well as other small pets in secure baskets) as the service will have readings about cats and dogs and it is an ideal time to not only celebrate our current pets but to remember those we have loved over the years and who are no longer with us.
