One of our members, Sandra Hood, is doing a sponsored marathon THIS Sunday 27th October in the New Forest Marathon. She is raising money for a great charity – Compassion in World Farming – who are campaigning to end the factory farming of animals and long distance transport.
We know that animal welfare and organic and humane farming practice is also a concern to many of our LETS members, so it would be great if you could give anything you can afford to sponsor her. Perhaps we could even have a sponsored run one day to raise money for LETS too?!
For information on Compassion in World Farming visit www.ciwf.org.uk and for more details on the New Forest Marathon see www.nfma.org.uk.
Please let Sandra know you wish to sponsor her by calling her on (01305) 852620 or email her on hood58@gotadsl.co.uk.
We hope you can join us in sponsoring Sandra, as we think she’s doing a fantastic job at raising awareness of the importance of farm animal welfare and through compassionate means too! : )
