Some are as young as 12 weeks, some as old as 13 years.Last year we re-homed over 65 Ridgebacks and helped an additional 17 to stay in their homes.If you feel you have room in your heart and home to offer a ridgeback a second chance please contact the trustees.

The Howard League in ScotlandAlthough based in London, the original League had several Scottish members who over 40 years ago formed an active branch. This branch focused on problems of the Scottish courts and legal system, liaising with and influencing Scottish MPs, civil servants, the Judiciary and of course the prisons themselves. It was evident that if it were to respond effectively to the unique needs of the Scottish penal system then a separate Scottish organisation was needed. In consequence, the Howard League for Penal Reform in Scotland was formed in 1979. It has continued to flourish as an independent body ever since, and of course, took on a new relevance and enhanced role with the re-establishment of the Scottish Parliament.We are a fully independent body, representing an enormous amount of experience and active engagement with members and Committee members at all stages of careers. We depend largely on contributions from our membership to continue with our work. THE HISTORY OF THE HOWARD LEAGUEThe Howard League is named after John Howard, the founder of the penal reform movement. Between 1775 and 1790 John Howard made seven journeys across Europe in search of a humane prison system for English jails to follow. He conducted these investigations on his own and financed them himself.In 1866, the Howard Association was formed. The founders felt that there was a need to campaign for reform in the independent style practised by its namesake. The aim of Howard Association was the “promotion of the most efficient means of penal treatment and crime prevention” and to promote “a reformatory and radically preventive treatment of offenders”.The Penal Reform League was founded in 1907. In 1918, Margery Fry became Honorary Secretary and it was under her guidance that the Howard Association and the Penal Reform League merged in 1921 to form the Howard League for Penal Reform.
