Thank you for choosing to support Birmingham Dogs Home.
We really appreciate the time and effort you will be making in your busy lives to help support the local homeless dogs in our care and we wanted to make it as simple as possible by sharing lots of ideas, details of events and resources right here. From challenge events to office-based activities, volunteering to team building, we have a busy calendar of activities for you to choose from.
By raising money for Birmingham Dogs Home you are helping us to care for dogs like Charlie
2 year old, male Boxer
£250 per year - will pay for me to have behavioural training, to help me to recover from my mistreatment
It costs our charity over £2.5 million to run our two rescue centres every year and we can’t do it without help from amazing people like you.
So set your target, make a plan, smash some personal goals and do it for the dogs! Thank you for helping us to help every dog learn to wag again and find a new family to give them the love they deserve.
Ways to Get Involved
Step into Steptember
Autumn is finally here! Get out and about making the most of your lunchtimes by walking a mile around our lovely park to raise money for Birmingham Dogs Home
We have marked out a scenic circular route for you to enjoy and if you have brought your own pooch to work with you, it’s the perfect lunchtime walkies.
Volunteer at our events
As a small hardworking team, we always welcome support from your staff. There are lots of ways to get involved. Our fundraising team needs help preparing for and running our community fundraising events. From helping put up gazebos to running games to helping out with dog shows, if you can lend a paw we would really appreciate it. We also have opportunities to support BDH at collection days at local Pets at Home stores.
Please see our 2023 community events list and complete an enquiry form if you would like to lend a paw.

BBP Netwalking Club
Are you looking to connect with other businesses on the park? Our monthly wellness walk and Netwalking session is the perfect way. We meet outside the Park Management offices at 12.15pm, take a stroll to the allotments via the wildflower meadow, return via the woodland walk and finish at 1pm with a FREE coffee next to the Main Lake.
Meet the Bees
We’re inviting our businesses to take part in this unique opportunity to join us for a ‘meet the bees’ session at our beehives with our local beekeepers. During the session, you’ll get to wear a beekeeper suit, find out what our honeybees do and why they’re so special. The beekeeping experience is led by Dave Taylor from our Landscaping Team at Nurture Landscapes
