On the 13 April 2014 I will be running the Virgin London Marathon for a charity very close to my heart, Battersea Dogs & Cats Home.  Their vision is of a world where all dogs and cats are in caring and permanent homes. The Home is a charity that aims never to turn away a dog or cat in need of help. They reunite lost dogs and cats with their owners and, when they can’t do that, they care for them until new homes can be found for them.   Without them our beloved Doris would not be with us today, so it would be lovely to give something back.  If you would be kind enough to donate to my page, no matter how small, it would mean a lot to them and to me.  Thank-you in advance for your support.  Wish me luck!
