Have you ever felt a little lost? Unsure of what your next steps in life are? For me, this feeling came a little later in life. It wasn’t until my health started to decline that I found myself lost, but with a little hope and some help from my friends, I was found. It’s a funny thing; getting older.

The first Animals in War pin was launched in 2017 and […]
