Winter Walk to Witherley 2025

The annual Winter Walk to Witherley is now in its FOURTH year!

This is usually when THREE ladies of a certain age walk from Atherstone to Witherley, a grand total of 3 miles, to take some gifts and Christmas cheer to rescue dog Big Man Brodie and all his doggy friends at Dun-Roamin' Dog Sanctuary!

(This year unfortunately it is just TWO ladies as the third had to have a foot operation and is incapacitated with a poorly paw!.)

This years walk is entitled 'CLAUS FOR PAWS' or alternatively 'MRS SANTA AT A CANTER!!' (Previous themes have been elves, reindeers  and angels)

As usual the ladies will be pulling a 'Santa Sleigh' (well a pull along garden cart... actual real Santa Sleighs are hard to come by...but it has tinsel and all sorts!)...loaded with presents for Brodie and friends.

We know you will be so impressed you will want to donate and if you visit facebook.com/bigmanbrodie/ you may see them 'HO HO HO-ING' their way to the kennels on Sunday 7th December 2025... we will be posting photos.

On a serious note all money raised will go directly to Dun-Roamin' Dog Sanctuary to help pay Big Man Brodie's bills at the Sanctuary and help Dun Roamin' keep doing the fantastic work they do saving dogs discarded by society and giving them a life worth living with love and respect.

We have set a target of £450 as this will pay for one month of Brodie's kennel bill.

Brodie is a dog we three helped to save from an uncertain future, managing to get him a place with Ian at Dun-Roamin' where Brodie has blossomed ever since, and we promised Brodie we would look after him forever! Any small donation is gratefully received. Thank you!
