Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.


Paul and I are running our first ever marathon (eek!) for the charity my sister founded back in 2014 to help street dogs in Sri Lanka.


WECare has grown from a one-woman-band to a dedicated team of 20 individuals, working together to help, treat and educate. As an NGO they rely on fundraising and donations to help them keep doing their amazing work.


Paul and I began training for the marathon in June, dedicating hours every week to pounding the pavements. There has definitely been a little blood, a lot of sweat and a few tears along the way. 


Paul is currently unable to run due to injury but is battling back hard with a strict rehab program to get him to the start line on 10th October!

We would be so grateful for any donations we receive and as a small charity you can rest assured that every single penny of your donation will be spent wisely by WECare to make an impact.


Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

"WECare are going to save the world, one animal at a time!" Janey Lowes, very optimistic founding member of WECare Worldwide. We dream of providing healthcare for all animals in desperate need of help around the world. Yes, we know it's a big dream, but anything is possible when we all come together! WECare Worldwide is an organisation set up by Westway Veterinary Group, the largest veterinary practice in the North of England. Ultimately, WECare Worldwide plan to extend veterinary services around the globe but initially will be concentrating on tacking the issues with the street dog population in Sri Lanka. It is estimated that there are up to 3 million street dogs in Sri Lanka. WECare Worldwide are in the process of carrying out a 5 year plan in which we will look to help eliminate rabies in the country and also reduce the numbers of unwanted street dogs. We will also treat any sick or injured street dogs.
