At the end of October, the hills will be alive with the sound  of.... (wheezing) as my pawz embark on a climb up Scafell Pike - highest mountain in England at 978m, to help Pawz for Thought build their first eco animal hospital. The project will get local wildlife the medical treatment needed as soon as they arrive, better servicing the region with immediate veterinary care. 

The land was purchased by the charity years ago in preparation for growth. Phase 1 is about the planning and development of the build in line with the charity's ethos to support wildlife with sustainable building.
