Challenge events
We have partnerships with charity fundraising experts who can support you in every challenge from parkruns to skydiving and treks in foreign lands.
What better way to raise money for our homeless cats, dogs, and small animals than to set yourself a challenge? You could even take part as an office or family team to raise even more!
Once you have signed up, we will send you all the information you need to set up a successful fundraising page and our friendly fundraising team are always on hand to answer any questions and offer advice.
