Fun events for young fundraisers

by | Feb 13, 2025 | Challenge events

We have teamed up with our friends at Run for Charity to offer places in some fun charity events aimed at younger fundraisers.

With entries starting at just £5, this is a great way to get young people involved with a fun event specifically aimed at young people. Quirky costumes are strongly encouraged!

We hope that our young ambassadors will be successful in raising money for our pets in need through sponsorship from friends and family, there is no pressure to raise a minimum amount to take part.
