Story
The Incredible Journey is a story of bravery, courage in the face of danger but above all the love of an animal for its owner.
In the classic story, the two dogs and a cat travel 200 miles through the Canadian Wilderness. We are asking you to sign up for your own Incredible Journey of 200 miles between 1st March and 31st August 2021.
Its the equivalent of walking from Nina Duchess of Hamiltons London home, where in 1939 she found a queue of owners looking to save their beloved pets after her announcement on the BBC, to the original Ferne Estate in Wiltshire, where the animals were first taken and the Sanctuary remained until 1975 and all the way back again.
Your Journey, Your Way!
It could be a group challenge; anything from a family or friendship group, WI, Brownies, Scouts, or Rotary OR an individual challenge to go the full distance. Whats more, how you cover the distance is up to you, you could walk, run, swim, skip or even dance, we really dont mind how you do it but please get in touch to let us know and if youre sharing your journey on social media dont forget to tag us and tell us where you have been, we really want to see where it takes you and celebrate those milestones with you.
