Dog walk

DON’T forget to put Saturday, 27 April, at 10am in your diary so that you can have fun at Kennel Field, and go on a six-kilometre walk with your dog in aid of Guide Dogs for the Blind.

Help president of the Rotary Club of Llanidloes, John Selwyn Smith, to raise £10,000 to train a Guide Dog puppy.

Entry is just £5 per dog or free if you are sponsored by your friends and family.

There will be a route map supplied and rosettes and dog treats will be awarded for all dogs finishing the walk.

Sponsor forms are available from Woosnam and Davies, Llanidloes Rotary Club and other locations.

Bring the sponsor form with you on the day so we can see how much you have raised.

For more information contact John Selwyn Smith on: [email protected] or 01686 413589.
