Helen and Karen

We are walking our first stage of the Camino de Santiago at the end of April. It has been on my “to do” list for many years and now is as good a time as any to start. Karen agreed to join in this adventure in her characteristic show of friendship, loyalty and craziness!

We are paying for the trip ourselves but wish to raise some funds for a charity I am a volunteer at here in Spain. I got involved over a year ago volunteering each week at the Paws Patas dog shelter. They carry out incredible work looking after and rehoming abandoned dogs (and cats). Every little donation counts and will go directly to improving the lives of these deserving animals. How much they would all love to be walking the Camino with us! By raising some funds Karen and I feel we can do our bit to make a difference, you can read here https://www.paws-patas.org/about the animals, funding that is required and how it is spent.
