Are you looking for a great way to get active and support a worthy cause this weekend?

Then mark your calendar for a wag-tastic time at the Doggy Fun Run at Pendennis Castle on Saturday, October 6, in aid of animal welfare charity Dogs Trust.

Whether you run, jog or walk with your canine companion, this event promises fun for both you and your four-legged best friend, all while helping raise crucial funds to care for over 13,000 stray and abandoned dogs a year.

Every dog paw-ticipating in the event will receive their very own bandana to wear, and will be greeted with a doggy-bag full of tasty treats when they cross the finish line – plenty of wagging tails guaranteed!

The 5km route around the grounds of Pendennis Castle will enable participants to enjoy the spectacular scenery along Cliff Road, through Princess Pavilion Gardens and around Pendennis Point. All entrants are welcome – whether you’re accompanied by a canine companion or not!

Event organiser and long-term Dogs Trust fundraiser Helen Morris said, “It's going to be spectacular to see all the dogs who have a happy home life participating in this fundraiser to help other dogs in need.

“It’s a great opportunity to meet like-minded people and pooches, all while raising money for a great cause. We’d love to see as many supporters there as possible, so encourage everyone to book their tickets soon before the event sells out.”

The event starts at 9.30am, £10 for adults, and £5 for children under 17 To guarantee your place at the fundraiser you can sign up online here, or email Helen at lovedogsfalmouth@gmail.com.
