The Cardigan Cannot Be Removed Until Insurance Confirms
Amira has coordinated the Trust's rehoming intake for eleven years. In March, the Volunteer Standards Committee introduced a Handling Attire Schedule requiring all long-sleeved outer garments in kennel corridors, pending a review of scratch-related claims. Amira submitted a request to remove her cardigan indoors. The request was acknowledged, forwarded to the Trust's insurers, and returned with a query about whether the corridor constitutes a kennel corridor. The query has been outstanding since April. Your donation funds the clarification process. Amira remains in the cardigan, holding the intake clipboard, as required.
“I asked what counts as a corridor. They said they would come back to me.”— Amira

This appeal was commissioned by a visitor and written on demand. It was not drawn up by us, it is not one of the 22 standing appeals, and it is every bit as unlikely to succeed.
