Virtual London Marathon 2021 · 3 October 2021 ·
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I am doing the Virtual London Marathon on Sunday 3rd October to raise money for the Cornwish charity, Flicka Donkey Sanctuary.
The Flicka Foundation rescues donkeys from situations of abuse, neglect and abandonment and allows them to live out their lives in a safe, peaceful environment.
During the pandemic some animal care facilities including licensed zoos had access to government funding but Flicka didn't. They also weren't able to open their gates to visitors long after other businesses, parks, and gardens. Throughout this time, however, they continued to rescue donkeys who were in desperate need and whose lives depended on the kindness of the sanctuary.
Flicka relies heavily on funds raised by being open to visitors, especially during the Spring and Summer months. Yet, due to the pandemic, their doors were closed for a year. It costs close to £90,000 per year to feed and care for the residents at the sanctuary and this doesn't include staff and volunteer time, essential site maintenance or equipment. It is only with public support and fundraising events that they are able to continue their vital work, so thank you so much for helping to make a difference.
The Virtual London Marathon will take place on Sunday 3 October 2021 on the course of the participants choice. 50,000 runners will have the chance to be a part of the biggest marathon ever staged anywhere in the world.
