Our Take the lead Together challenge this year is centred around completing 31 walks from around the UK.
Our route starts in the West Midlands and takes in some of the most stunning areas of England, Scotland and Wales.
With this year being our 130th, the total distance of these 31 walks totals 130miles.
Our challenge to you, is to walk 130 miles in May to raise £130 pounds for Birmingham Dogs Home, so we can provide another 130 years of care to homeless and unwanted dogs.
