Welcome

This website records the charity events undertaken by Martine Clarke, to raise money for different charities. As a Guide Dog owner who has had 7 different dogs, she has been the recipient of significant support, particularly from Guide Dogs for the Blind. She is presented with many charity-challenges, and as you will see as you view the posts here, she never turns them down!

In addition to undertaking these challenges, she is also a speaker for the Guide Dogs for the Blind charity.
