Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Taking a trip to Dublin Zoo is an Irish tradition. I've very fond memories of our trips as kids. I'm extremely lucky to watch my niece and nephews enjoy the beautiful enclosures and educational talks they put on.

I'm a huge animal lover and my favourite animal in Dublin Zoo would be the Asian Lion. So, I've decided to do a virtual walk to India (4,979miles) where a small population of the Asian Lion still live.

I'll try grab as many people to walk/run with me and we will share our progress 😊

With our help we can save Dublin Zoo and watch our kids and future generations enjoy this wonderful zoo and get their chance to make a wish on the wishing chair ❤️ 

Thank you so much for all your help xx
