Every step you take in the CareDogs 500 Miles Challenge helps us bring companionship, connection, and improved wellbeing to older people who are experiencing loneliness. With over 200 participants already benefiting from our walking and befriending services, your support could allow us to expand our reach, providing more group walks, volunteer training, and essential resources to keep our events safe and inclusive.
Loneliness affects over 1.4 million older people in the UK, leading to serious mental and physical health risks. By taking part and fundraising, you’re not just logging miles—you’re helping to build a stronger, more connected community. Your efforts could directly support our work in reaching more vulnerable adults, including those with disabilities, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to experience the joy of canine companionship and social interaction.
Together, we can be one step closer to our mission - Solving social isolation, one dog walk at a time
