We know our charity is powered by an army of pup lovers – but don’t worry if you don’t have a pooch of your own (though we think this is a great excuse to get one…). Walk in memory of a beloved pet, take your kids and their favourite stuffed animals for a stroll, join a local dog walking group, or even complete the walks solo – every step you take will help save lives.

Yes! You can absolutely collect cash donations for your Whirlybird Walkies Challenge. Once you have signed up, you’ll be able to email us at support@gnaas.co.uk to request a fundraising form.

When you sign up, you’ll be emailed over a digital fundraising pack with helpful tips and tricks you need to make the most of your fundraising. Of course, you’re always welcome to get in touch with us and we’ll guide you through any issues you’re encountering.

We encourage everyone to raise what they can and suggest a target of £150 per participant. Once you raise £10, you’ll receive your exclusive Whirlybird Walkies dog tag.

When you raise your first £10, you’ll receive an exclusive challenge dog tag. We’ll also reveal more tail-wagging rewards throughout the challenge.

Absolutely! You can walk together as a group or even create a team fundraising page.

There are no age restrictions in place for Whirlybird Walkies. As long as you’re able to complete your miles with your four-legged friend, you’re welcome to join in!

We’d recommend using a Smartphone or Smartwatch to do this, apps connected to these devices usually track your daily milage. Take screenshots of your distances (and some cute pup pics) and post them into our Canine Care Team Facebook group. Again, you’ll be sent all the details via email once you sign up.

For this challenge, you can collect sponsorships through JustGiving and/or cash donations. Don’t worry, once you sign up, you’ll be sent an email detailing everything you need to know on getting your page up and running, but in case you want to be nosey, click here for the campaign.
