We're running the London Marathon!
On Sunday 25th April we'll be pounding the pavements & hoping to raise lots of cash for three charities that our very close to our hearts.
- Labrador Rescue South East and Central: this amazing organisation brought us our beautiful Buddy! They find forever homes for needy Labs. It costs over £270 to rehome each dog & they rehome more than one dog every day.
- Cancer Research UK: in memory of Penny's wonderful & much loved dad, Alg, who we lost in 2006. This is the world's leading charity dedicated to beating cancer through research
- Action Heart: in celebration of Craig's dad, Tony, & his successful battle with heart disease. This Dudley-based charity runs one of the country's leading Cardiac Rehabilitation programmes.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. If you'd like to make your donation
go even farther (& are a UK tax payer) then please tick the box for
