London Marathon 2026 · 26 April 2026 ·

Galgos del Sol is a registered UK & Spanish charity based in Murcia, Spain. We rescue & rehabilitate abandoned & injured galgos for forever homes in the UK, EU & US. Bred for hunting, not as pets, 1000s of galgos are abandoned or killed annually. We strive to educate the public about their plight.

Story

Would you look at that, she’s doing it again🧘‍♀️

In April, I will be running the London Marathon for Galgos del Sol, a charity based in Spain that has made an incredible difference in the lives of abandoned hunting dogs. These dogs, often mistreated and discarded when they are no longer useful for hunting, face a life of hardship and neglect. Galgos del Sol works tirelessly to rescue them, giving them the care, love, and second chances they deserve.

After my mum, sister, and I volunteered with Galgos del Sol for a short time, and myself for 6 weeks after graduating university, I was inspired by the incredible work they do. We have since adopted 2 dogs from Galgos del Sol. First is Twig, and she quickly became a much-loved member of our family. Watching her transition from a frightened, abandoned hunting dog into a confident and loving girl has been truly heartwarming. Her journey with us is a powerful reminder of the difference Galgos del Sol makes in the lives of these dogs. Since running the marathon last year, we also adopted Vinny. Twig and Vinny shared a kennel at GDS when we volunteered there and now they’re back together in their sweet life, on the same sofa ❤️

I am asking for your support in raising funds for Galgos del Sol so that they can continue their life-saving work. Your contribution will provide essential medical care, shelter and the opportunity for a brighter future for so many dogs. Any donation big or small will make a real difference ☀️
