Story
Thank you so much for visiting my page!
I am so proud to be running the 2019 London Marathon in support of Brooke. I have run eight marathons in the past, including three other majors, but never have I felt more motivated or excited to participate in a race as this is for a very special cause!
As most of you know, horses are an important part of my life and to be able to support a charity that focuses on equines that are far less fortunate than our own is truly a privilege for me. I have committed to raise a minimum of £2000 ($3400 CAD) for Brooke as I train for the London Marathon.
Brooke is an international animal welfare charity dedicated to improving the lives of working horses, donkeys and mules. There are 100 million working animals in the world supporting 600 million people, primarily in underdeveloped nations. Donations to Brooke reach 2 million animals in Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Middle East.
Some examples of the wonderful work Brooke is involved with are:
-Emergency care and basic First Aid
-Education of owners and local veterinarians
-Teaching proper hoof care and farriery practices
-Providing guidance to local harness and cart makers
-Water and fodder management in drought-stricken countries
-Initiating children’s animal welfare clubs
-Improving animal welfare in the harshest environments, including brick kilns, coal mines and sanitation centres.
Thank you so much for supporting Brooke and providing me with inspiration for the many miles ahead!
