My story

 

Well - we've done it!!  Forty-six of us completed Dogs for the Disabled's 'Trek Machu Picchu' Challenge (12th - 21st September).  Much tougher than any of us expected!  

Having heard some of the very personal stories of the other trekkers whose wives/siblings/family members already have an assistance dog, I remain committed to reach my personal target of £4,500 to fund the training of a puppy to become an assistance dog for either a disabled adult, a disabled child or a child with autism. 

Please take a moment to read some of the case studies at www.dogsforthedisabled.org/partnerships & learn more about how these remarkable dogs literally change lives.

Please sponsor me now and help transform somebody's life today!  We have earned EVERY penny!

(Note: unlike many of our MPs... I have paid all my costs- £1,500 - for flights, accom, trek guide etc, to ensure ALL donations from friends & family will go directly to the charity to train puppies!)

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Dogs For The Disabled 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.
