Last Tuesday, Tony, the founder of the Anthony V Martin Charitable Foundation,  had a remarkable experience meeting King Charles at Windsor Castle. Tony has been dedicated to supporting animals around the world for over two decades, and last year he was awarded a CBE for his incredible commitment to animal welfare.

Due to the pandemic, the celebrations were delayed until this year. However, the wait was undoubtedly worth it. Tony was warmly welcomed to the palace by King Charles, who shares his passion for animal welfare. King Charles has long been an advocate for animal causes, and his charitable work in this field is well known.

King Charles has been involved in numerous animal-related causes throughout his life. He is known to be particularly passionate about environmental sustainability, conservation, and the well-being of animals.

One of the notable animal welfare causes King Charles has supported is the British Red Squirrel Conservation Project. He has also spoken out about the cruel practice of bear bile farming and has worked to raise awareness about the illegal wildlife trade. In addition, he is a patron of several animal-related charities, including the World Wildlife Fund and the British Hedgehog Preservation Society. 

The conversation was a true meeting of minds, with both men sharing stories about their experiences and discussing the ongoing fight for animal welfare. Tony was delighted to have the opportunity to meet the new King, and King Charles was equally impressed with Tony's dedication to the cause.

Despite the challenges posed by COVID, Tony and the Foundation continue to work tirelessly to support animals around the world and are always looking to hear from animal charities and organisations leading the fight for animal welfare.

We are incredibly proud of Tony's achievements and look forward to seeing the Foundation grow and continue to have impact in the future.
