What is WOOF?
Losing a beloved person or canine companion can be an incredibly emotional journey and we want to help everyone celebrate these important connections and the lasting impact they have.
Whether you are joining us at Salcey Forest or organising your own walk, share your stories and memories with others, because the companions we lose, whether two of four-legged, we will always carry with us.
How the event works
1. Choose your walk location
Salcey Forest:
A 3.5km walk featuring moments of pause, remembrance, and celebration in memory of a beloved dog or dog lover.
Choose your own location:
If you are unable to attend the event in Salcey, you can go on the same journey, by organising your own walk.
2. Start fundraising in memory
This walk will not only be a special time to remember the one you have loved and lost, but also a chance to raise vital funds in their memory, helping dogs that need us now, and in the future.
When you sign up, a fundraising page will be set up for you automatically, so you'll be able to start fundraising for Dogs Trust right away.
We're so grateful for your support and we know the dogs are too!
3. Upload your photo
Salcey Forest:
Upload a picture and name of the person or dog you are walking for to the gallery section of your fundraising page. Your photo will be featured along the walk, for you to take a moment to pause and cherish all those memories you spent together.
Your own walk:
Upload an image to our Memory Wall, a place to read others' stories and share your own.
Your WOOF keepsakes
If you have signed up to our Salcey Forest event, you will receive:
- A WOOF lanyard and memory card for you to personalise with the neame of the one you are walking for. Write a message to your loved one and carry this on the walk, to symbolise taking them with you on this journey. At the end of the walk, you can add your memory card to our memory wall to join the collective celebration
- A WOOF Wildflower seed coaster for you to take away and plant at home. As you watch it grow, it will not only be a reminder of the time you spent at Salcey Forest, but also of the joy they brought to your life.
If you are organising your own walk and have kindly donated £10, you will receive these items in the post in September.
