The Welly Walk - Central Park, Plymouth
Sunday, 6 October 2024, 10:30
Join us at Central Park for a welly good walk!
We are delighted to be hosting a walk in Plymouth for the first time and excited to meet you all!
How do I get involved?
There are a couple of ways you can get involved...
🐾 Register your dog for a tail-wagging adventure and invite friends and family to sponsor your four-legged friend! Upon completion, they'll fetch their very own doggy bandana and a certificate to mark their paw-some achievement! Up to four people can walk for free when you register your dog.
If you raise £50 from sponsorship, it will pay for one of the lifesaving jackets for our assistance dog partnerships. And if you hit this target, your paw-fect friend will get a treat goody bag as well.
🐾No dog, no problem. We would love for you to still join us. You can do this by making a suggested donation towards our Partnerships, Projects and of course Pups! You will receive a complementary medal or pin badge when you complete the walk.
