I’m taking part in the 2026 Edinburgh Marathon with Dogs Trust!
I’m running in the 2026 Edinburgh Marathon in support of Dogs Trust!
Six years ago, I adopted a retired racing greyhound called Ziggy, and it remains one of the best decisions I have ever made. That experience has made me deeply passionate about giving dogs a second chance, which is why I am running the Edinburgh Marathon to raise funds for Dogs Trust.
The aim of Dogs Trust is to give stray and abandoned dogs a brighter future with responsible, caring new owners. Last year, they cared for 11,707 dogs across the UK and Ireland, rehomed 9,914 dogs, and helped deliver nearly one million meals to dogs in need through Fareshare foodbanks.
Your support helps them continue this vital work, especially as the cost of living crisis adds increased pressures for dog owners.
The work of Dogs Trust is only possible with donations like yours. If you’re able to make a small contribution, I know they’d be incredibly grateful – and so would the dogs!
Thank you.
