Story

Hello Borderfest people and most importantly, BT's.

While I was having super cuddles this morning and sharing the joy of my pups with you all, I noticed how many people are part of this group. Then I thought, 'wow, if everyone donated just £1' that would be over £3000 that could go towards Border Terrier Welfare.

Now, I'm not very creative. I cannot run. I cannot bake and I would be useless at a triathlon but, I'm proud to say that I can do a full press up without my knees touching the floor. So, my plan is to do one full push up for every pound donated. I will video it if you'd like and I may take breaks, but I will do it.

£1. It's nothing really. I spend several pounds on one bottle of wine. I may even have it in lose change somewhere and not think twice about it. To the BT's that BTW help, it's everything - and hey, you get to see someone do a push up for you.

Take a couple of minutes and donate. On the 02/04/16 I'll count up all the pennies we have donated and start pushing up.

About the charity

Started in November 1981 with two strays in Southampton, we now cover the UK, receiving some 250 referrals annually, with dedicated volunteers and no paid staff. A committee of 12 is elected annually at an October AGM. 10 of these are charity trustees, who meet 4 times a year to review progress and determine strategy. BTW receive invaluable support and assistance from 7 regional breed clubs, and from the more informal btposse, and borderfest groups, from whom fund raising challenges have emanated.
