A Stevenage card shop has teamed up with an international animal rescue organisation to help raise money for pets left behind in Ukraine.
Cardies, an independent shop selling greeting cards and gifts, has been fundraising for AMA dog rescue to send supplies for the abandoned dogs in the war torn country.
