A Topball-funded mission

Street Paws Network

A privately funded animal welfare network that recruits security guards with empathy for animals, supports their families, and improves life for street dogs — street by street.

Operating model

Street to street, family to family

Founded by James Corden-Lloyd whose past background included operations in conflict zones across South Asia and South East Asia. The network is built on relationships with the people already watching the streets.

1

Recruit with empathy

We recruit security guards who show a natural kindness to animals and a high degree of emotional intelligence — the people already watching the streets.

2

Support families first

We prioritise guards with young families and responsible mothers — people working hard to feed their children. Funds arrive directly from Topball profits.

3

Fresh food for everyone

They buy good, fresh food — chicken, pork, beef, rice and vegetables — for their family, then share nourishment with the street dogs on their route.

Expansion is deliberate and street by street — across South East Asia, South Asia and post-conflict regions where guards meeting our criteria can be recruited and supported. Every new street is published here.

Privately funded

Do business with Topball · fund a street

Street Paws Network is privately funded through Topball's commercial work. Sport roof manufacturing contracts have the greatest and fastest impact on its growth, followed by tennis retreats, English teaching and book sales. Every roof project directly expands the network — improving life for a guard's family and the street dogs on their route.
