Raising money for Vetlife and Pets As Therapy

Story

At the end of April 2022 I (Kate McMorris) will be undertaking a ride with my awesome quarter horse Marilyn from John O'groats to Lands End, a journey of well over a thousand miles. We will be carrying all our kit for wild camping , and will be exploring our beautiful british countryside as we travel.

Spending time with my animals is a great way of helping reduce my stress levels, and we see how much animals can help people in so many ways. The veterinary profession is a stressful one, but it is helped by our daily interaction with these amazing creatures. My chosen charities of Vetlife (which provides emotional, financial and mental health support to the veterinary community) and Pets As Therapy (a national charity that enhances the health and wellbeing of thousands of people in communities across the UK. They strive to ensure that everyone, no matter their circumstances, has access to the companionship of an animal) are ones that resonate with my heart and my belief that we should all have animals in our life, along with the vets who keep them well.

It would be great if you could donate to the cause - I am trying to keep the 2 donation funds as equal as possible so please donate to the lower one if possible!!
