My story

 

Yes, can you believe that I'm running a half marathon!  It's my first one and I'm very nervous but it's all in a very good cause - to help dogs like Eddie.

Thousands of greyhounds retire from racing each year - some find new homes but many are cruelly abandoned or worse.  GRWE is the leading independent greyhound rescue charity that works throughout the UK to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome abused and abandoned greyhounds.  It's a small charity doing great things - rehoming over 500 dogs each year - and I've recently become a Trustee.

So, thanks for visiting my page and sponsoring me!
