London Marathon 2024 · 21 April 2024 ·

We aim to never turn away a dog or cat in need of help, caring for them until their owners or loving new homes can be found, no matter how long it takes. We are champions for, and supporters of, vulnerable dogs and cats, determined to create lasting changes for animals in our society.

Story

For the last three years, I had the incredible opportunity to live in New Zealand, where I fostered cats and kittens in need of medical treatment and special care. It was a deeply rewarding experience to provide them with the support they needed before finding their forever homes.

During my time in New Zealand, I had the privilege of supporting QT Cats, a remarkable charity that had a significant impact on improving the lives of wild and abandoned cats in Queenstown. I took part in the Queenstown marathon to raise funds for this incredible organization.

Now that I have returned to the UK, I have decided to continue my fundraising efforts by supporting Battersea, an organization that has been at the forefront of animal welfare for many years. To do this, I'll be taking on the London Marathon in April 2024 which will be my fourth, and hopefully fastest, marathon!

I know firsthand how even the smallest donation can make a significant impact on the lives of vulnerable animals. Your support will help cover essential expenses such as vet bills, medicine, and nutritious food, ensuring that each kitten and cat receives the best care possible. And let's not forget about our canine companions - your contribution will also benefit puppies and dogs :)
