EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the summer of 1979 on the M23 motorway near Redhill in Surrey. The image captures a heart-wrenching scene as an abandoned puppy finds itself caught in a perilous race for survival along the fast lane. With cars whizzing past, each passing moment becomes a potential brush with death for this innocent creature. However, just when all hope seems lost, fate intervenes in the form of a compassionate driver. Acting swiftly and selflessly, they rescue the vulnerable pup from its imminent demise and take it under their care. Determined to provide it with a chance at life, they make their way to the RSPCA at South Godstone. The photograph not only serves as a reminder of human kindness but also sheds light on the plight faced by countless animals left abandoned and alone. In that single frame frozen in time, we witness both vulnerability and resilience - qualities that define our connection with animals. As we delve into this snapshot from four decades ago, let us reflect upon how far we have come in our treatment of animals since then. May it inspire us to continue advocating for their welfare and ensure that no animal has to face such daunting challenges alone again.
