Five Boroughs. 5,000 Miles. One Mission.
The Big CareDogs Challenge is back this April, and this year we’re going bigger: 5,000 miles across our five London boroughs, with a £7,000 fundraising goal.
Join a team and log your walks in The Big Team Challenge app. Every mile moves us along a virtual route through Bromley, Croydon, Lewisham, Lambeth and Southwark, with 12 real landmarks to reach along the way.
Walk your dog. Walk to work. Walk with friends. It all counts.
Why We’re Doing This
Loneliness affects over 1.4 million older people in the UK. Through CareDogs, almost 500 people have already benefited from our services - through human and canine companionship.
By taking part and fundraising, you help us:
Deliver more group walks
Train and support volunteers
Cover safeguarding and DBS checks
Keep sessions inclusive and accessible
Reach more isolated adults
Every mile logged helps fund real, local impact.
Our £7,000 Team Goal
Together, we’re aiming to raise £7,000 for CareDogs. Every donation helps us bring people together through regular walks, conversation and the companionship of dogs.
