SOS Animals receive no government funding and so they’re putting on a sponsored walk taking in 8 miles around Hampstead Heath between 11am-3pm on Saturday 24th July to help raise valuable funds for their rescue.
Tania Coates from SOS Animals says, “We have no government funding at all and we are run entirely by a small group of volunteers. We are raising money for food, water, vetinary care, sandfly collars, just about everything you could think of that a shelter needs to continue to provide the love and care these poor abused and abandoned dogs need.
If you would like to take part in our walk (which is being led by an experienced ramblers association leader) please respond to this email and we will send you a sponsorship form. All we ask is that you raise £15 minimum sponsorship.
You may bring your 4 legged friends on the walk and we will have some of the dogs looking for homes with us wearing their ‘I need a home’ bibs.
It will be a fun day out, there will be plenty of rest stops on the way and a nice pub lunch :o) the walk will be fine for all abilities so don’t be scared if your not particularly fit.
If you don’t wish to participate but would like to donate please make a pledge by emailing tania@sos-animals.org.uk no matter how small every penny really does count.”
