Why Samaritans need your support
We know that life can sometimes be incredibly tough. Thanks to the dedication of more than 20,000 volunteers, Samaritans can be there for anyone, whatever they are going through and whenever they are struggling to cope. We’re also at the heart of local communities, working with schools, workplaces, railways, prisons and hospitals to offer training and support, preventing suicide and helping people turn their lives around.
Our life-saving work wouldn’t be possible without the extraordinary generosity of our event participants.

About Dog Jog
Dog Jog celebrates the opportunity for dog owners and their four-legged friends to get active and take on adventures together!
The great thing about Dog Jog is that participants can take part at their own pace (or the pace of their furry friend)! That might be a walk around the local park or a run over the local lush grassy hills - the most important thing is that participants are keeping active and completing it together!
“Your challenge, your rules”.
- Choose a distance you and your dog will both enjoy
- Choose your own pace - run, jog or walk
- Complete in one day, or over multiple days
For more information on the event, please visit the official Dog Jog website.
Incredible support from start to finish!
