Joanne's Personal Message:
Many thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

My New Years resolution was so do something for charity so that’s exactly what I’m doing (despite the fact that everyone thinks I’m bonkers!). Firstly, I deliberated over what activity to do to raise money and eventually narrowed it down to walking or cycling which were the only two forms of exercise that were remotely of interest. I settled on the latter as I felt it might be the slightly easier of the two at my time of life!

I then debated what charity to raise money for and decided on one of our local charities – Waggy Tails Rescue. It was from Waggytails that we adopted our dogs Sam and Molly some years ago and who have brought us much fun and happiness.

The ride is at the end of September, riding 300 miles over four days which means approximately 70 miles a day. I've signed up for the ride on my own but hope to make some new friends along the way.

Special thanks for sponsorship by Weldon and King Estate Agents, without who I wouldn't have a bike to ride! www.weldonandking.co.uk.

Joanne is raising money for Waggy Tails Rescue:
Waggy Tails Rescue Waggy Tails is a registered charity based near Poole and Bournemouth.

The Waggy Tails story is about happy dogs, happy people and happy homes. We always put the animal first – then the rest will follow.

We have a no destruction policy. No healthy animal is ever put to sleep, which means that as well as re-homing we also look after dogs in long term foster homes.
These tend to be dogs who are too ill or too old to be re-homed but we feel that these “oldies” have a right to a dignified and happy retirement. We need foster homes and sponsorship for our “oldies” whose vets bills are consistently high!
