We are so proud to support the Royal Veterinary College’s Animal Care Trust.

For more than 30 years, the Royal Veterinary College Animal Care Trust has been dedicated to improving animal health and care. The Trust supports the Royal Veterinary College hospitals that see over 25,000 animals a year by providing funds for new equipment and enhanced facilities that enable them to continue their world-class care. The Trust also supports clinicians and scientists of the future, as well as the development and application of scientific research.

15% of the net proceeds from the sale of the Stacy Chan Charlie Mini Bags will be donated to support this charity. You can learn more about the Animal Care Trust and/or donate to them directly here and read about our designer’s personal connection to the RVC below.

Stacy & Charlie’s Story

People who follow us closely on social media, will have caught glimpses of my beautiful Labrador Charlie who I have had since she was 7 weeks old. She was the sweetest, cutest and most beautiful puppy monster! She destroyed shoes, tv remote controls, mobile phones and doorframes with her exuberant puppy energy. Yet she brought joy to everyone she passed on the street or in the parks.


Charlie the naughty puppy grew up to be the kindest, friendliest and mostly well-behaved dog. She’s the favourite everywhere she goes, thanks in part to her wagging tail and love of life.

We were devastated a couple years ago when we learned that Charlie had developed a brain tumour. We were referred to the Queen Mother Hospital at the Royal Veterinary College and their world-class neurology clinic for her treatment. I was so impressed by the level of care she received from everyone we encountered from the receptionists to the nurses and surgeons who performed her life-saving brain surgery.

Charlie has enjoyed two years of runs around the park, swims in ponds and general happiness. Unfortunately, Charlie has very recently encountered additional health problems, but she has faced all her troubles with a waggy tail and I hope she will continue to do so. We are so grateful for the extra time that the RVC helped us to have with Charlie and I am so proud to support them in their aid of our beloved pets.
