A heartfelt thank you to Kathy Griffiths, also known as Cumbria Cate.

Since 2016, Kathy has been using her love of sewing to create beautiful handmade hessian baskets, donating them to help raise vital funds for animal rescues both here in the UK and overseas.

Most recently, her work has supported Pawpers in the Ruff, WarPaws, and HAART through Power of One.

Craft with Compassion

These baskets are more than unique, hand-crafted pieces. Each one represents hours of care, patience, and love. More importantly, they reflect a choice, a decision to stand alongside small animal welfare charities that depend on support like this to keep going.

Kathy’s creativity has become a bridge between compassion and action, showing how individual effort can have a ripple effect that reaches far beyond one person’s hands.

Kindness That Inspires

We are truly grateful for Kathy’s kindness and commitment. She reminds us that real change does not always come from big campaigns or loud gestures, but from small, consistent acts of compassion carried out by those who care deeply.

Her story is a powerful example of how one person can make a lasting difference and how every contribution, no matter the size, helps create hope for animals in need.

🧡 One person. One action. One difference.
