About Kerstin Fitzpatrick

I am 49 years old and a German National. I am a Technical Translator (Dipl. and MA) and work freelance. I live in South Wales (since 2006) with my husband and our rescue dog Rumo. For the last 4 years, I’ve been a volunteer foster carer and foster co-ordinator for Hope Rescue. I enjoy travelling, hiking and marathon running.

I will give a brief overview of the situation of homeless dogs in South Wales, their prospects to find a better life and the role rescue plays in this.
