Marathon Runner raises £1,300 for Horse Welfare Charity
|
Thanks
to the efforts of Cornish supporter, Carol Dunster, the ILPH (International
League for the Protection of Horses) is £1,300 better off.
Carol, from Bugle, the first Cornish person to provide a loan home
for a horse rescued by the ILPH, completed her gruelling run in
the London Marathon in just over five hours and 22 minutes.
Jeff Herrington, ILPH Field Officer in the South West comments,
"I would like to give a big thanks to Carol and her supporters
who have raised much needed
funds for the ILPH.
"It's thanks to the generosity of such loyal supporters that
the ILPH is able to carry out the work that they do for the welfare
of equines worldwide."
