I'm running my first half marathon on Sunday 9th October! 

I am planning to make a donation to my friend's animal rescue in Liverpool and thought I would see if anyone wanted to contribute a little towards it.

The rescue is really struggling at the minute, as are all rescues. The boom in breeding during the pandemic, lockdown pets being given up, and the cost of living crisis has caused huge difficulties for rescues who are struggling to cope and having to turn animals away. 

Steph is a true gem. She is a medical doctor who gave up her career in medicine to dedicate her life to helping animals. She never takes a day, or even few hours, off. If you can afford it then even a couple of pounds would be much appreciated and will go towards giving her a decent donation. If it helps, I have never ran 20K and haven't had much time to train so will definitely struggle!
