This is me and this is my dog, Poppy.  Together we are running the Liverpool Santa Dash to raise money for a very worthy cause.  I've done the Santa Dash 3 times previously, but this is Poppy's first time, so please give us all your support!

I promise I will reward your generosity with some embarrassing photos of me and some very cute photos of Poppy dressed up in our Santa outfits.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now!
