Welcome To WAGGOL
Winston And Gary's Gifts Of Love
WAGGOL was born from the tragic loss of our founders son Garry to Mental Illness, and with deep sadness, we recently lost Winston our old boy and the 'W' in WAGGOL our mascot, our family and our joy.
This site and everything we do and the ethos we hold dear is the need to be kinder in an ever growing diverse and divisive society.
We want you to know that no matte how small your questions, how quiet your voices, you are heard and you are seen!
No matter the path of life you travel, let us be a rest stop on your journey, a place you can feel safe and feel respite if only through comforting words to be read on our site, advice or being pointed in the right direction.
Did I mention, we also give a helping paws to the furbabies.
When you're having a bad day WAGGOL this way.
As a mantra of our founder says
"Love Never Dies, It Lives In Every Gift"
And also;
"Kindness is a gift that should be given freely without expectation"
Give us a shout, a woof or meow ♡
What We Do At WAGGOL HQ
To help us in our fundraising,
We personally design handmade decor, gifts, cards and more using only our founders design talents.
We also offer personilised gifts. We design images for clothing and merchandise, mugs & tumblers that on request, we can personilse to individual requirements.
We make handmade faux floral arrangments that last forever, bouquets, seasonal wreaths and decorations and home decor.
We are creative souls who believe, when it's made with love, its recieved with warmth and a smile (who doesnt deserve to smile right) 😊
All our handmade pieces are sold to raise funds to purchase items to donate to various organisations, individuals, human and animal alike.
Each fundraising cycle we will name who each event being held will be helping.
We do not keep any profit made, we recoup the cost to replenish materials and then every penny of profit is donated. Transparency is a pivotal part of what we do.
We are only a small community group so our help is limited by what we can produce so we also welcome donations of products used in our creative ventures and also for prizes for our events but we will NEVER ask for financial help so if anyone asks on WAGGOLS behalf please contact us immediately and do NOT donate. All donations of products come through WAGGOL alone.
We also when able donate staff room hampers to NHS departments and GP's as a way of thanking the staff for their care. We are hoping to expand this to other services soon.
This is an information and advice site so please if you are interested in our handmade products or donating, please visit our social media or get in touch by using the contact form.
Thank you.

Our Aims
Our Aims
Over the past year, we have helped both individuals in our community brighten their lives a little by helping with the small things that make the big difference and so help their mental health and well-being.
We have supported organisations with donations for their events.
We have given donations to animal shelters to help feed their furbabies and we have donated prizes for raffles.
As a small community fundraiser, we do the best we can and in the run up to Christmas 2026 and then the coming year 2027 we will focus on three main chosen organisations whilst still helping individuals.
We welcome you to get involved in the community events and any support is appreciated very much.
We get contacted a lot from companies abroad to put their products on our site at a cost. We will NEVER sell 3rd party merchandise as we are here to fundraise and help, not profit and benefit companies so please refrain from sending emails to ask us to add products. Thank you.
About WAGGOL
Our Ethos
"Let Yesterday's Painful History Give Stregnth To Tommorows Determined Destiny"
WAGGOL was founded in 2023 by a mother who had tragically lost a son to mental illness after living a lifetime of the disease. Inspired by everyday community hero's and individuals, who are also fighting for their community, WAGGOL and it's co founders wanted to give a helping hand and along with their pawsome pooch Winston Fabio Brad, WAGGOL was born:
'Winston And Gary's Gifts Of Love'
We saw a need for more resources in our community, more support for local organisations, fighting day by day for a better way, and in a cost of living crisis, a little helping hand or paw, where possible.
WAGGOL'S founder is also passionate about nutrition, being an insulin pump wearing diabetic, and so likes to support small businesse making life easier and healthier for people in need of support with living with chroni conditions.
WAGGOL'S founder became a gatherer of nutritional knowlege, seeking out game changing affordable food products that help her live as normal life as possible whilst advocating for people needing lifestyle changes and wellbeing. Nutrition can play a big part in our mental wellbeing so this has become one of WAGGOL'S founders missions to bring mental health front an centre whilst understanding the road nutrition plays. On her mission and journey she has lost an inspiring 22kg through determination and seeking out the usually unseekable.
WAGGOL is about self care as well as your care.
"Food not only nourishes the body but nurtures the mind"
Our Team
Our team is small but mighty!
Made up of helping hands and playful paws, we are passionate about our community of both humans and fur boys 'n' gals!
We can't move mountains as a small team, but we do try to help who we can get over the bumps in the road making for more steady journey's.
Meet The 'W' in WAGGOL
Meet Sir Winston (or as he was know fondly by some) Winston Fabio-Brad ♡
The face that launched a thousand smiles.
This is one of the two boys behind the drive to make WAGGOL a reality.
He definitely was an emotional support and was loved by all who knew him, admired and adored by those who had the honour of getting to know him through social media and fawned upon by those he used to meet on his walkies.
Winstons family, who had grown with him, and his brother (his human brother) and his children that are his brother young ones, valued and loved him deeply, this has given them an appreciation and understanding that animal welfare is also as important as what we do for each other.
We called him the CEO (Cuddles of Everyone) of the team.
He deserves a round of apaws.
Now the beautiful fave of his angel WAGGOL pack in the WAGGOL Rainbow Garden, 🌈
We miss him every single moment of every day and we will honour and remeber him through our memories and hearts and especially through being our Angel CEO of WAGGOL
🐾😔💚🌈
