Great Dog Walk
1st-30th April 2021
Calling all our furry friends to get active for our care and encourage their humans to sign-up for our first ever virtual dog walk!
Throughout the month of April, we’re asking our pawfect pals to take their people out and about for a socially distanced walk. Persuade your owners to set you up a Just Giving page, with a photo of yourself looking your best, and watch the £’s roll in for patients and their families locally!
Taking part is easy; humans, simply:
- choose a walking route and distance that suits you; pretty country lanes, woodland, wide open spaces, whatever you like
- choose your walking buddies; four-legged friends, Covid-secure bubbles, or even a solo challenge; whichever you choose, ensure you follow any local restrictions
- pick a date between 1 April and 30 April, or walk as many days as you like over the month
- sign-up for free below
- set up a Just Giving Page in your dog’s name; include a lovely photo of your beloved pet raising funds for our care
Pets mean Prizes!
Any doggy who sets up a fundraising page will be sent some delicious treats courtesy of Pets at Home in Worcester. Raise more than £20 and you’ll be entered into a prize draw to win a year’s free membership of the Brentknoll Veterinary Centre Pet Health and Life Plan or a pamper session – bath, blow dry and brush – at Groomingdales.
