WildWash partners with the Rescue Pet Awards 2026

WildWash is sponsoring the inaugural Rescue Pet Awards 2026, celebrating rescue pets, shelters, volunteers, and organisations making a difference in animal welfare.

 

Organised by Only Rescues, the multi award-winning rescue pet adoption platform, the Rescue Pet Awards shine a spotlight on the inspiring individuals, charities, shelters and brands working to improve the lives of rescue animals across the UK and beyond.

 

As a Supporting Sponsor, WildWash will support the awards programme and help raise awareness of rescue pet welfare, adoption, and the incredible work happening throughout the sector.

 

"At WildWash, animal welfare has always been at the heart of everything we do. We are delighted to support the Rescue Pet Awards 2026 and celebrate the remarkable work of the rescue organisations, volunteers and adopters who give animals a second chance. Rescue pets bring so much joy to our lives, and we are proud to help recognise the people and organisations making a real difference every day."

 

The Rescue Pet Awards 2026 will bring together animal welfare advocates, rescue organisations, pet industry leaders, influencers, and supporters for a high-profile evening of recognition and celebration in London.

 

“We’re delighted to welcome WildWash as a sponsor of the Rescue Pet Awards 2026,” said Tara Hamdi, Founder of Only Rescues. “Partnerships like this help us celebrate the rescue community while continuing our mission to help more rescue pets find loving forever homes.”

 

The awards are part of Only Rescues’ wider mission to modernise and improve rescue pet adoption through technology, awareness, and collaboration.
