Bethany aims high

Here’s 10-year-old Bethany at the top of Snowdon. What an awesome view!

She climbed 1,085 metres to the summit with her mum and dad and raised an incredible £393 to help animals. Despite the cold, Bethany powered through – along the 30km route to the top and back.

“I have a rescue bearded dragon and snake,” says Bethany. “So I wanted to raise money to help the RSPCA save other animals.” Thank you, Bethany!

WANT TO FUNDRAISE FOR THE RSPCA?

You could hop for a mile with friends, cycle five miles with your family, or run ten miles in a month. All you need to do is ask your grownup to register today with your details and let us know what you will be doing!

Super cycler

To raise money for the RSPCA Halifax, Huddersfield and Bradford Branch, eight-year-old William went on a sponsored cycle. He peddled 160km (100 miles) throughout the summer holidays, and raised an incredible £828.

“I’ve always loved animals,” explains William. “I live on a farm with my dog Rosie. I’ve made friends with the animals and I know how important it is to look after them 365 days a year, even on Christmas Day. Well done, William.

Three times a winner

A mini triathlon is no easy feat! You run 1.6km (one mile), cycle for 11.2km (seven miles) and then swim for 200 metres – all without a break. 

When 11-year-old Lucas decided he was up for the challenge, he asked friends and family to sponsor him to raise funds to help the RSPCA. He smashed his £250 fundraising target too – raising a fantastic £484!

“I love animals,” says Lucas. “So even though the triathlon was hard work, it was worth putting in the effort for such a good cause.” Amazing job, Lucas!
