Bungee Jump GSDR 2012


Bungee Jump to Raise Funds for GSDR

We need YOUR help to fund raise for The BIGGEST & The BEST CHARITY in ENGLAND & WALES! Two volunteers Mark Steward and Jayne Shenstone, will tackle the UK's highest bungee jump to raise much needed funds for GSDR. June 17th - Tatton Park, Ashley Road, Knutsford, Cheshire, WA16 6QN

Because of the current economic situation, we are absolutely overwhelmed with record numbers of unwanted dogs. This really is the worst ever in the history of this rescue.

At GSDR we believe all dogs deserve a chance and because we don't cherry pick the young and easy dogs, we have at least 50 urgent dogs that are being housed in commercial boarding kennels. This is an enormous financial burden for the rescue and we desperately need your contributions so that we can keep these dogs safe.

Why we urgently need your help?

numbers of dogs needing home by month

Since 2010 we have seen a three fold increase in the number of dogs needing to find new homes every month. We are only 5 months into 2012 and again the figures are rising. Coupled with the fact that we are getting fewer people wanting to adopt and that we currently have over 50 dogs in commercial kennels, the rescue is under immense pressure financially.

The 50 dogs we have in kennels are housed in commercial boarding kennels with our kennel bills running at around £10k per month. Previously we have limited our kennel dogs to a maximum of 30 to try and keep a control on costs. The situation that we have now is unsustainable and we urgently need your financial assistance.

If we can't take urgent dogs, what will happen to them? All dog pounds and rescues are overflowing with record numbers of unwanted dogs.

Please help us raise the funds to pay our kennel bills so that we can keep these dogs safe until we can find their forever homes for them.

Mark and Jayne are going to be leaping out of a basket suspended 300 foot in the air attached by an elastic band! All for the love of the breed and for GSDR who need YOUR help. Everyone is welcome to come along and watch the event, pets are also welcome. Our jumps are to take place around 15:30.

Mark has done a bungee jump before but Jayne has not. This is the UK's highest bungee at 300ft so the prospects of launching ourselves from this height is scary - to say the least.

We might even get our hair washed!
