A fundraising evening is taking place in Bolton, Greater Manchester, on Friday 3 April 2026 to help rescue and look after dogs in need.

The event starts at 7:00 PM at Ainsworth Arms 606 Halliwell Road and features live music from singer Kaya, a DJ, and a karaoke session. Guests can also take part in an Easter-themed raffle to support the cause.

The night is organised by Big Paws Welfare, which is a branch of the registered charity Saving Saints Rescue UK. This group focuses on finding new homes and providing medical care for large and giant breed dogs.

According to event details shared by Rescue dogs for rehoming, all money raised during the evening will go directly towards the costs of rescuing and rehabilitating the animals. The charity relies on community support to help cover rising veterinary bills and foster care expenses for dogs that have been neglected or surrendered.
