Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

I will be running the Great Cumbrian Run on the 19th October this year. It's a half-marathon, and will be my first!. Shane is running with me, and we are both enjoying the training.............so far!!

The Brooke is the UK’s leading overseas equine welfare charity and our aim is to improve the lives of horses, donkeys and mules working in the poorest parts of the world. These animals form the backbone of the economy in many developing countries, supporting countless poor communities where many people earn less than a dollar a day.

The Brooke’s mobile vet teams and community animal health workers, and our partner organisations worldwide, provide free treatment to animals and train animal owners, local healers, farriers, saddlers, feed sellers, harness and cart makers. We currently operate across nine countries in Asia, Africa, Central America and the Middle East.

The enormous difference the Brooke makes is thanks to the kindness of our supporters and the dedication, care and compassion of our local vets and community workers.  Our work is underpinned by unique and proven methods developed with Bristol University Veterinary School. We have over 750 highly-skilled staff working directly in the field.

Our vision is that by 2016, Brooke will have increased the number of working animals we reach from 650,000 to the five million suffering horses, donkeys and mules who need our help most in the world.


Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Brooke Hospital For Animals gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
