Canine Partners is a registered charity (no. 803680) which receives
no government funding and is wholly dependent upon public donations
and legacies. The purpose of Canine Partners is to assist people
with disabilities to enjoy a greater independence and a better quality
of life and, where possible, to help them into education and employment,
through the provision of specially trained dogs, whose well-being
is a key consideration.

Bluebell Walk is a campaign that was launched in 2005
to raise money for the charity. The walks are a great way of getting
supporters together with their family, friends and work colleagues,
to have fun, get fit, and you don't even need to have a dog to
take part!

Bluebell
Walk 2008
Canine Partners are delighted to announce the fourth annual
Bluebell Walks campaign. The idea is for sponsored walks to
take place during April and May when the bluebells are expected
to bloom.
The walks give supporters the opportunity to get together
with family, friends and other dog lovers, taking part in
something fun and worthwhile. |
Walks
can range from anything from 1-10 miles, or longer if you wish.
And there is no limit to the number of people who can join each
walk. Canine Partners will of course help you to organise your
walk. They will send each walk organiser a pack to help make your
walk a success but more importantly, make it fun for all involved.
If you want to take part but don't have bluebells growing near
you, don't worry, you can still hold a walk in your local woods
or park.
