Glasgow families called to join fun Paw Patrol inspired charity walk next month
Children and their families are being called to join a fun Paw Patrol challenge in order to raise vital funds for a dog welfare charity.
The 'Paw Patrol on a Stroll' challenge asks kids, families and nurseries to participate in a sponsored walk throughout October, with all ages welcome to join in.
Monies raises will help Dogs Trust, who rehome around 11,000 dogs each year and have a rehoming centre in Glasgow and West Calder, to continue doing the important work that they do.

As part of the challenge, children will have the chance to become their favourite pup hero, inspired by the animated series, for a worthy cause. Participants will receive an activity pack and will have their own fundraising page, alongside a fundraising activity guide with a host of fundraising ideas and tips.
All of the donations that your 'little heroes in training' raise will help dogs get the love and care they need.
Owen Sharp, Chief Executive of Dogs Trust said: "We’re delighted to be partnering with PAW Patrol for a second year. It’s fantastic to see young people coming together through this engaging initiative with the aim of raising essential funds for the important work we do at Dogs Trust.

"As the UK’s largest dog welfare charity with decades of expertise and experience at our fingertips, we do everything we can for every dog in our care to prepare them for the future they deserve, as quickly as we can, so that they spend less time in kennels. And, once they are in forever homes, we support them for as long as they need.
"The funds raised through this activity will be crucial to ensure we are able to meet the needs of all the dogs we support."
