More Christians have been murdered by Islamists this year alone than Palestinians during three years of war. Dozens more Christians, including children, are currently being held hostage. Where is the outrage?

I wrote a new piece about women’s rights and whether or not I want trans people dead. (Spoiler: I don’t)👇 jkrowling.com/opinions/an-up…

I’M GOING TO BE HONEST, BECAUSE THIS IS REAL LIFE, NOT A PR CAMPAIGN. I cannot keep carrying this level of worry without asking myself what more I’m supposed to do we sadly aren’t a polished charity with the big names, the celebrity endorsements, the fancy PR or the money to pay for people to give us a few words of support . We were just us. Raw. Real. Determined. And facing the dogs and cases that so many others would rather not look at. We don’t have a big budget to buy attention. We don’t have celebrity privileges to open doors. What we have is experience, compassion, determination and a willingness to stand beside the dogs who need us most, especially the most challenging cases. And here’s what really gets me… Major charities and services reach out to us daily for advice, guidance and help. We know what we’re doing. We have knowledge, experience and a genuine commitment to making a difference. We show up when things are difficult, messy and heartbreaking. Yet when we put our hands up and ask for support, collaboration, media exposure or simply someone to help us get our message out there, it can feel like we’re shouting into a void. Over the past few days, I’ve pushed social media campaigns, made shout-outs, tried to build collaborations and reached out in the hope of finding people who believe in what we do. Even an offer of PR and media volunteer support hasn’t brought the response we hoped for. And there’s another part of this that people may not realise. I do all of this voluntarily. I don’t take a penny in wages. There is no salary waiting at the end of the month for the hours, the worry, the responsibility or the emotional weight that comes with this work. I give my time, my energy and so much of myself because I believe these dogs and their owners deserve the help. walking away simply isn't something I can do lightly. Every single day brings another bill, another expense, another need that cannot simply be ignored. There are real costs behind the scenes, and the financial pressure never seems to take a day off. We can have all the compassion in the world, but we still need resources, practical support, connections and people willing to stand beside us if we’re going to keep doing this work. And I’m left asking myself: What more are we supposed to do? I’m not writing this for sympathy, and I’m not asking anyone to feel sorry for us. I’m asking people to look beyond the size of a charity, the number of followers it has or the famous faces (not) attached to it. Look at the work. Look at the cases. Look at the commitment. Look at what can be achieved when people who genuinely care come together. I don’t want us to spend more time trying to convince people that we deserve support than actually getting that support to the dogs. I want us to be seen for what we ARE. So yes, I’m deflated. I’m worried. I’m questioning what the next step should be. But I’m also reminding myself why we started in the first place. We need PR and media volunteers. We need meaningful collaborations. We need people who can amplify our work, connect us with the right networks, help us raise awareness and turn visibility into practical support. If you can help, please reach out. Every genuine offer of help could make a difference. We might not have the biggest voices in the room, but we have something worth speaking up for. We are raw. We are real. We face the cases others find too difficult. We give our time voluntarily, and we keep showing up because the dogs still need us. We cannot do everything alone, and we shouldn't have to. We’re not asking for applause. We’re asking for people to stand alongside us and help us keep going. Not for recognition. Not for headlines. Not for ourselves. For the dogs. Always for the dogs 🧡 Thank you for listening & goodnight M x

Today, I ended up in hospital after experiencing significant chest pain. I’m now being referred to the Rapid Chest Pain Clinic because the doctors believe there could be an underlying issue that needs investigating. I’ve been put on daily aspirin and nitrolingual spray to use when the pain comes on, with clear instructions that if it doesn’t settle within five minutes, I must return immediately to hospital. But while I should be concentrating on my health, my mind keeps going back to one thing: What happens to the charity if we cannot secure the financial support we desperately need? I have given 10 years of my life volunteering to this charity, following six years previously volunteering to help London’s homeless people and their dogs. For 10 years, I have kept going because I believe in what we do. I believe in the people we help. I believe in the dogs we support. And I believe that the work we do matters. But I have to be completely honest now. We are struggling financially. Fundraising is becoming harder. Grants are becoming harder to secure. Donations are becoming harder to find. Yet the bills, and other essential costs do not stop. The charity’s overheads continue every single day, whether we have the money coming in or not. And I am reaching a point where I cannot continue carrying the financial worry, the pressure and the uncertainty on top of everything else. I am worried about my health.
I am worried about the charity.
And I am worried about what happens next. This isn't a post I ever wanted to write. I don't want sympathy. I need support. If you have ever believed in what we do, if our work has ever meant something to you, or if you simply want to help us keep going, now is the time to stand with us. 🙏 Please donate if you can. 🙏 Please consider fundraising for us. 🙏 Please share this post. 🙏 Please talk about our charity and help us reach people who may be able to support us. Even a small donation can help. A share could reach someone who can make a much bigger difference. A fundraiser could help pay an essential bill. A regular donation could give us the stability we desperately need. Please don't wait until we're forced to say that we can no longer continue. We have spent years helping others through some of the most difficult circumstances imaginable. Right now, we need people to help us. I have given everything I can for the last 10 years. But I cannot do this alone anymore. Please help us keep the charity alive.🧡 dogsonthestreets.org/donate-new/ peoplesfundraising.com/fundraising/he… peoplesfundraising.com/fundraising/ou… #UrgentAppeal #PleaseHelpUs #CharityAppeal #SupportOurCharity #Fundraising #EveryDonationCounts #Homelessness #HomelessDogs #CharitySupport #SmallCharity #HelpUsContinue

They treat their livestock better than this They let them mature before breeding them, give them access to sunlight, assist in their births They’ll even hide the knife before slaughter But women are less than livestock to the Taliban This level of psychopathy is unsustainable

Maternal deaths in Afghanistan could rise by 50% this year. After the Taliban's ban on contraception, women are being forced to give birth without doctors, miscarrying without treatment, and losing access to even basic medicine.

The Church of England has never even given this poor women the dignity of her name. He only bought her so the Archbishop can hang the medal on her (the Archbishop was not allowed to touch him). No one that accepts this can call herself a campaigner for women's rights.

So i am in emergancy housing with 5 kids, so far we have had to move 3 places in 3 weeks. This place was supposed to be booked for 28 days to give me and the kids abit of stability while we secured a long term tenancy. We have been here 12 days and we have just had a knock at the door to say we should of checked out this morning and they had another booking starting at 3pm. So Bradford Social Services lied, it's a Sunday and its taken me over half an hour to even get through to the emergancy duty team for help. Lucky the woman has said she is not kicking us out today for safeguarding reasons, but by tomorrow we need to have something else sorted. My Social worker has gone on leave so no idea who to even speak too to get this sorted and this will now be the 4th place in 4 weeks we have to move to. Imagine telling a woman with 5 kids, who's fleeing violence and danger, that something was booked for 28 days, when it wasnt, and leaving them to possibly be on the streets with no where to go. If that isnt a set up by Bradford Social Services, I don't know what is.

Please sign if you don’t want women to lose their words.

From the Facebook page, New Jersey Against Antisemitism: If you go to an Ed Sheeran concert and end up at a Free Palestine rally courtesy of his headliner, you’re entitled to demand a refund. Ticketmaster confirmed they’ll issue one. Call 1-800-653-8000 and demand it directly, citing bait-and-switch — you paid for an Ed Sheeran concert, not a political rally. Get the rep’s name and a confirmation number. Share with everyone who went.

.@edsheeran I brought my wife and two daughters to MetLife Friday because we are huge fans of yours. We arrived early, I spent $180 on two sweatshirts for them, watched the first two opening acts and were having a great time. Then Macklemore decided to turn your concert into his political rally. When he started chanting “Free Palestine” and pushing his clearly uneducated version of the Israel/Gaza conflict, my daughters looked at me completely confused. I had brought them to an Ed Sheeran concert, not to have an opening act lecture them about Middle East politics. After Friday night, I started looking into Macklemore’s history. What I found, including his repeated use of antisemitic tropes, made the whole thing even worse. So I took my family and walked inside alongside hundreds of your other fans. As we were walking in, even the MetLife security guards were rolling their eyes at what was happening on stage. We waited until Macklemore was finished before returning to our seats. Then we watched your show, which was phenomenal. I left Friday hoping maybe this had caught you and your team off guard. Then tonight you allowed it to happen again. You knew exactly what Macklemore had done the night before, and you gave him the stage again. Friday might have been Macklemore’s decision. Saturday was yours. You have a lot of Jewish fans who love your music, buy your albums and merchandise, and bring their kids to your concerts. Tonight, you lost four of them. And I suspect plenty more. @CombatASemitism @StopAntisemites
