Hello, my name is Rachel, and I set up our charity due to a very special boy called Winston.

In May 2017, at the age of 9, Winston was diagnosed with a tumour on his spine. Within a short time, he lost the use of his hind legs.  And I was faced with the heartbreaking realisation that I might have to let my boy go…

Desperate to find a way of keeping him mobile, I posted on social media, and a lovely man contacted me to say he had a wheelchair that Winston could use.

I would never have been able to afford to buy Winston the wheelchair he needed.  But thanks to the kindness of a complete stranger, he had an extra 4 years as a very happy staffie.

So, this charity is Winston’s legacy - and since his passing in June 2020 we carry his memory on.

Just like Winston, we want to help dogs get their freedom back – either in the short-term after an accident or operation, or with a permanent set of wheels.

How can we help?

• If, like me all those years ago, you can’t afford to purchase your own wheels, please get in touch and we’ll assess your application.
• Our charity helps dogs that need wheels across the UK and Northern Ireland.
