Story

This May, challenge yourself and your four-legged friend to walk 30, 60, or 90 miles – a distance for all breeds, sizes and capabilities, all to help keep our whirlybirds soaring for those in need.

We know our charity is backed by an army of pup lovers, but don’t worry if you don’t have a dog (though this might be the sign you’ve been waiting for… 😉).

Walk in memory of a beloved pet, take your kids and their favourite stuffed animals for a stroll, or borrow a friend’s Frenchie - Whirlybird Walkies is for everyone!

Last year, our amazing walkers raised £10,000, and this year, we’re aiming even higher... with an average of six emergency call-outs a day, and daily running costs of £23,200, your support is more vital than ever.

So, grab a lead, stock up on treats, and let’s go Whirlybird Walkin’ together!
