51 years Vegan

It's Fiona's birthday on 1st August marking her 51st year as a Vegan

With multiple marathon wins under her belt, including at the North Pole & in Antarctica, 3 times finisher of the notorious marathon des sables, plus no less than 4 Guinness World Records - despite having a knee replacement and no kneecap - Fiona is an incredible example of what can be achieved without consuming meat & dairy

Fiona is one of the very few athletes who can demonstrate "Longevity" of veganism together with World Record Standard athletic performance - in addition to caring for 500 rescues!

Unfortunately, Fiona's animal shelter is in a bad place financially as over the past few years regular monthly support has fallen due to the economy and feed prices have rocketed resulting in a situation where running costs are exceeding donations by around £6k a month

Sanctuary running costs work out at £2 per animal per day - which given the number of large animals is very economical, but with 500 rescues that's £30,000 to find each month - in addition to special projects like tractors and new shelters etc

The £6k shortfall sounds like a lot, but its 300 people doing a fiver a week - spread over a lot of people helping, it is achievable

In the meantime, we are using our reserves to cover the shortfall, but these won't last.

So we need to find funds to boost the reserves until we can find more people willing to help with a few or more pounds on a monthly basis

So to that end - a supporter has offered a significant donation of £25K on a "matched basis" - i.e. if you donate £50 it will be doubled to £100 - full details on our website in the How to Help link

The proceeds of this Birthday Fundraiser will be DOUBLED and feed into the matching scheme :)

Please make a difference and support and share this fund-raiser for Fiona & the animals :)
