Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

More than 1.2 million people in the UK use a wheelchair, and a significant number of those would benefit from a canine partner.  We tailor make our dogs to each applicant’s individual needs, training them to help with everyday tasks such as opening and shutting doors, unloading the washing machine, picking up dropped items, pressing buttons and switches and getting help in an emergency.  We train dogs for the disabled with even the most complex conditions including members of HM Armed Forces.

These life transforming dogs also provide practical, physiological, psychological and social benefits including increased independence and confidence as well as increased motivation and self-esteem.  A canine partner also brings companionship, a sense of security and increases social interaction. Canine Partners receives no government funding and relies solely on public donations. 

So some of the staff at the Midlands Centre decided to take on the X-Runner challenge, by roping in more people to take on the challenge there is now a large group of runners taking on the challenge to raise as much money for Canine Partners as possible.
