Story

Since 2021 me and my wife Georgi have raised almost £10,000 through our business, lil wabbit, for the pets of people experiencing homelessness via the charity StreetVet. In 2024 I have decided to take on my own personal challenge to support StreetVet's amazing work by running 12 marathons in 12 months.

Having never run a marathon before I have decided to do twelve in one year, a big undertaking fitting for an incredible cause!

Why StreetVet?

Homelessness is a growing problem across the UK, with many of the people experiencing homelessness having a pet. In many circumstances, the pet was part of their life before they became homeless. The bond between many homeless people and their pets is profound and the health and wellbeing of their companions is often a major priority for their owners.

StreetVet's volunteer vets and vet nurses provide accessible fundamental veterinary care. They vaccinate, microchip, treat for fleas and worms, prescribe pain relief, help fight infections, perform surgeries and sometimes just sit and listen.

We think their work is invaluable and we hope to help them support even more animals in 2024.
