Sponser Toby and his companion animals Matt and Gem as they walk 133 miles from The Monkey Sanctuary (Looe) to Land's End to raise money for the work of The Monkey Sanctuary Trust...
This September Toby, a rescued one and a half year old collie cross will trek the 133 miles from his home at The Monkey Sanctuary Trust to Land's End to raise money for The Monkey Sanctuary Trust's work. Toby will be aided in his travels by his two compainion animals Matt and Gem (humans) who will carry his supplies and equipment along the way!
Your sponsorship money will go towards helping provide a safe, stable home for primate victims of the UK pet trade; it will also help the Trust in its campaign work to try and end the trade in primates as pets both in the UK and overseas.
All members of this team are vegans, so we hope that the environmental impact of this sponsored trek will be tiny as we use only the power of our bodies and tasty, local vegan foods along the way!
So please sponsor Toby and his helpers and help us to raise money to give primates a better, brighter future.
