Associations Auction Bazaar Behalf Defence Defenders Hold Nares Owen Ritz Welfare
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of an important event held at the prestigious Ritz Hotel in London on 27 November 1930. The Animal Defence Society, a pioneering animal welfare association, hosted its annual Home and Bazaar event, where dedicated individuals gathered together to raise funds and awareness for the cause. At the helm of the auction was the popular and esteemed actor, Sir Owen Nares. With a career spanning both stage and screen, Sir Owen's charisma and influence drew a large crowd to the event. The Animal Defence Society, founded in 1870, was one of the earliest organizations in the United Kingdom dedicated to the protection of animals from cruelty and exploitation. The Home and Bazaar was a significant part of the Society's annual fundraising efforts. The event featured a variety of activities, including a sale of donated items, games, and raffles. Proceeds from the day went directly towards supporting the Society's work, which included inspecting and improving animal living conditions, campaigning for animal rights, and providing education and resources to the public. The Animal Defence Society's mission was groundbreaking in its time and paved the way for the establishment of other animal welfare organizations. This photograph serves as a reminder of the dedication and passion of those who came before us, working tirelessly to ensure a better world for animals. The Animal Defence Society's legacy continues to inspire and influence animal welfare efforts around the globe. Today, we honor their commitment and remember the impact of their work, as we strive to create a more compassionate world for all creatures.
