Story
On September 20th I'll be dressing up as a dog and taking part in the one-off Bexhill to Hastings Link Road 10k run to raise money and awareness for Canine Partners.
Canine Partners is an amazing charity which trains dogs to perform all sorts of daily tasks and then partners these incredible dogs with disabled people. Assistance dogs can provide invaluable help with tasks that may otherwise be difficult, painful or impossible to perform for a disabled person. The dogs also provide that special companionship, unconditional love and affection which is so unique to dogs. Having a Canine Partner can, quite literally, transform a disabled person's life, giving them back independence and the confidence to go out and about on their own.
If you haven't heard about Canine Partners or seen them in action, please take a look at some of the videos on the charity's website:-

I'm hoping to raise £800 because that amount would purchase a new puppy to become a Canine Partners Assistance Dog of the future.
