If any readers have been lucky enough to secure a place in the 2012 Virgin London Marathon, then I’m sure, like me, you’re extremely excited.
This will be my third marathon, and what keeps me going is the thought of raising vital funds for veterinary charity PDSA.
Across the UK, more than 400,000 pets depend on PDSA. Every year, our dedicated veterinary teams provide 2.3 million free treatments to the beloved pets of households who cannot afford private vet bills.
If you decide to support PDSA, we will do all we can to support you too: Runners receive help during training and on the big day.
Contact our fundraising department on 01952 204791 or e-mail marathon@pdsa.
