Supporting LRPD
Once again we’ve produced our calendar in support of LRPD (London Retired Police Dogs Trust).
For the 2025 edition, LRPD took retired dogs “Back on the Beat” to meet up with colleagues and the departments they would have supported during their working years! Photographer Jonny captures some special moments as LRPD reunites old friends and you see the happiness in the dogs’ eyes, delighted to be back on the beat one last time.
ALL proceeds go to LRPD
All the money raised goes directly to the LRPD to help them to continue all the good work they do to help Retired Police Dogs following years of service and loyalty “on the beat” and support their handlers with their veterinary bills.
LRPD co-founder Phil Wells said:
“LRPD really appreciates the support that Metfriendly have given us over the years. Sales of the calendar sales have really made a significant difference to the level of funds available to the charity. This support has a direct impact on the charity’s ability to fund the medical costs of retired Police dogs.
Many of us have felt the effect of the cost-of-living crisis and for those with ex-service dogs facing the costs of medication or expensive operations that insurance pay-outs can’t cover, finances can get particularly tough. It’s heart-warming to see a financial services company care so much about the things we do, but that’s because Metfriendly are one of us – they are Police Family, and their 131 year heritage says it all. The difference that Metfriendly has made to the lives of these dogs and their owners has been huge.”
