This was published yesterday in Dogs Today:
The 30 most deserving dog charities in Britain
One of our wonderful readers has just contacted us for some help. She is looking to identify 30 of the most deserving dog-related charities as she has an elderly friend intending to leave approx £25k to each. Her friend is keen to identify charities that are not going to use the money for PR or admin, she wants the money to make a real difference to dogs. Quite a challenge! We can think of quite a few, but 30 is a fabulous number. Who would you recommend? What a great idea - making such a difference to so many. I think the quest could make a great article. Please let us know the charities you are familiar with for whom a £25k legacy could make a huge difference.
There has been a huge response and if we're not careful some of the tiniest charities may get lost as they don't have the numbers of supporters to campaign for them! Can I ask that if your charity or point is already covered that you don't really need to post again, we're not looking necessarily for the most popular charities - just trying to identify the ones who will make the best use of the dosh to help dogs. The lady has confirmed that only registered charities would be eligible. "The only criteria is that the recipients must use the money solely on the dogs,and that they are registered charities. I know that this is going to leave a lot of causes in the cold, but how else can I make sure that the money is used properly?"

I am confused. People are nominating rescues which as far as I can see are not charity registered

This will help anyone who wants to nominate
Look up the rescue to know whether it is charity registered or not
