I've got my own place

Why should I take part in the walk for Cats Protection

Two reasons, both are as important as each other.

Firstly, to make life better for millions of cats across the country. Your generosity and kindness enables our teams to go on caring for cats
Secondly, for yourself! By taking part in this run, it can be a fantastic and fun way to challenge yourself, mix up your day to day, get fit and raise vital donations for cats in need. We like to think of it as the good kind of nervous. You’re getting out of your comfort zone but you’ll be having so much fun doing it!

I’ve not taken part in a running event before. What support will I get?

It can be daunting to take on a fundraising running challenge, but sign up today and you’ll be supported from the start including:

dedicated support from our Events team, ready to answer your questions and share their top tips
a brilliant fundraising pack containing information, tips and sponsorship forms to help you hit your fundraising target
a branded t-shirt to wear with pride during your training and run
access to our Facebook community so you can connect with other cat lovers and exchange ideas, tips and advice
