Nick Ettridge is raising money for Battersea

London Marathon 2026 · 26 April 2026 · Start fundraising for this event

We aim to never turn away a dog or cat in need of help, caring for them until their owners or loving new homes can be found, no matter how long it takes. We are champions for, and supporters of, vulnerable dogs and cats, determined to create lasting changes for animals in our society.

Story

I’m proudly running the London marathon and raising money for Battersea.

As a dog dad of five (including three rescues), animal welfare and rescue is very close to my heart.

I’ve already started training and I’ve lost 6 stone to get to this point so it means a lot to me on an emotionally and physically!

Any donations large or small would be hugely appreciated and will go towards Battersea and the care of so many cats and dogs.

I’ll keep you all updated on this crazy journey via mine and my dogs social media, they are all cheering me on and I’m so ready for this challenge.

Battersea will always be here for every dog and cat.Battersea takes dogs and cats in, gives them the expert care they need and finds them new homes that are just right for them.They help pet owners make informed choices, provide training advice, and campaign for changes in the law.And they help other rescue centres and charities at home and abroad because they want to be here for every dog and cat, wherever they are, for as long as they need Battersea.
