I am raising funds for Hack Back CIC a local organisation that works with people of all ages. What makes Hack Back different is that they deliver animal assisted interventions using owls and dogs. I am a dog groomer and animal lover and know the difference animals can make to the lives of people.
Hack Back has had a great deal of success in getting people who don't normally speak (elective mute) to talk, often for the first time. They also work with people who have been through trauma.
Anita and the team at Hack Back have been asked to work with children traumatised by the Grenfell Fire disaster. Hack Back do not have the funding to travel to London to do this important work.
One little boy in particular had to walk over people to get out and his parents and siblings were in comas for some time. He hasn't spoken since the disaster.
I started running as part of a quest to improve fitness and to lose weight. The Manchester Half Marathon will be a big challenge for me and the furthest I have ever run. Your support will help me to achieve mt goal and your donations will help Hack Back to do their valuable work.
