Story
Whittingham Kennels is a charity which works to re-home ex-racing greyhounds into loving homes. These loyal, gentle and affectionate wee souls typically finish racing when they are 3-5 years old and make fantastic pets. Whittingham is one of a network in the UK that helps to rehome over 5,000 dogs annually, but there are always more dogs than homes. To continue operating, they are reliant on donations from kind folk like you.

About CrowdfundingAbout the fundraiser
Vanessa Wintle-Thorpe
As the owner of an ex-racing greyhound myself, I'm a big fan of them as a breed - they need little exercise and are loyal and gentle. While I won't be running as fast as a greyhound, I'm looking forward to completing a half-marathon for these 40mph couch potatoes.
