Ben's London Marathon for Dogs for Good

Ben Cohen is raising money for Dogs For Good

London Marathon 2026 · 26 April 2026 · Start fundraising for this event

We support individuals, families, and groups with complex health and social care needs, often due to disability, dementia, autism or mental ill health. The support we and our dogs provide enables them to better access the world around them.

Story

In April I'll be running the London Marathon for Dogs for Good - an amazing charity I'm proud to be a trustee of. Their work is simple but extraordinary: training dogs to change lives. Since 1988, they've been supporting people with physical disabilities, autism, dementia and learning disabilities to live more independent lives through the power of dogs.

It costs over £22,000 to train and support each assistance dog, and with over 5,000 enquiries every year, every pound raised makes a real difference.

And yes… I somehow agreed to run the whole 26.2 miles dressed as a dog.

The AI Experiment

I work in AI for charities, so I thought I'd practise what I preach. Zosia is an AI agent I've built to help raise money for Dogs for Good. She's running a menu of daft-but-delightful fundraising tasks you can commission - from rating your dog's name to writing your dog's horoscope to getting me to dye my hair.

Every penny goes to Dogs for Good. Zosia works for free (no biscuits required).

Browse the full menu and place your orders here.

Or just donate directly - whether it's £5 or £500, it all goes towards training life-changing assistance dogs. And keeping me accountable for the suit.
