Taking steps (a lot of steps!) to make a difference

  • 28/01/2017 - 11/06/2017

Claire Merrick is fundraising for Lanta Animal Welfare

I'm making a difference by raising money for a cause close to my heart. Please support me by donating.

My Story

In 2014/2015 I volunteered at Lanta Animal Welfare on the beautiful island of Koh Lanta, Thailand.  After 3 months volunteering I was then lucky enough to help there for a further 9 months, something which had a massive impact on me and has resulted in a complete change of career and 2 little black cats coming from LAW to live with me!  Lanta Animal Welfare is a non profit charity whos aim is to raise awareness of the hardship of homeless, sick, and injured animals and to sterilise and vaccinate to help keep the population low and healthy.    Every year they sterilise thousands of cats and dogs, which in turn helps to stop hundreds of thousands of unwanted kittens and puppies.  I have decided to take part in a walk from London to Brighton which is 100km/62miles which I hope to complete in one go which will take approximately 28hours!  I start walking early on the 27th May and will finish sometime around midday on the 28th May (along with my friend Lysha who is raising money for Amnesty International). I really appreciate any money you can donate;  £7 will feed a cat/dog for a week, £9 will provide tick/flea treatment for 2 small dogs, £12 will sterilise 1 cat/dog, £22 will provide food and health care for 1 cat/dog for 3 weeks, £35 will feed all the dogs at the centre for one day.  Please support me if you can, every penny counts!
