Who We Are

The Debs Foundation was set up in memory of a wonderful, special and loved person called Debbie Gittleson. We support charities that reflect the causes she believed in and advocated for. 

From a very young age, Debs loved and cared for animals. Growing up in Sheffield, we were surrounded by small pets. Knowing this was her passion, Debs studied and qualified as a vet, moving into practice caring for large and small animals. After a few years, she decided to become a writer, publishing a text book on Pain Management for Small Animals and writing on new treatments that were available for vets.  Supporting animal welfare charities is at the heart of The Debs Foundation.
