During the month of March an amazing gang of dog lovers collectively known as the Scooby Doo Gang undertook a fantastic 100km challenge to raise funds for Rosie’s Trust and K9 Search & Rescue.
The gang met through their dogs which include Frenchies, Lurchers, Spaniels, Golden Retrievers, Daschunds and Doodles during lockdown with lifelong friendships and connections being made. The challenge involved each member walking 100km with their furry friend over the 31 days of March this year.

The gang raised an incredible £1000 selling over 200 raffle tickets and we are so grateful for their support, the local businesses who got behind this fantastic challenge and the generosity of their followers sponsoring their steps and purchasing raffle tickets
We’ve absolutely loved following the challenge on Instagram – a highlight has been spreadsheet evidence of the 100km completed (total dedication) and when members of the gang bumped into each other by accident during the challenge.
The Scooby Doo Gang finished off the month with a live raffle draw and a treat fuelled meet up courtesy of the Dog Meadow to celebrate their achievements.
Huge congratulations to all the prize winners! And all our thanks to the Scooby Doo Gang for choosing Rosie’s Trust.
