Met Police Duo Take on Winter Walk for Retired K-9 Heroes

Two dedicated officers from the Met Police, Karen and Kerry, are stepping up to support retired police dogs. Their mission? To raise cash for the London Retired Police Dogs Trust and help cover the hefty medical bills these loyal animals face after years on the force.

Why Retired Police Dogs Deserve Our Support

Unlike human officers, retired police dogs receive no pension or financial aid. When medical expenses stack up, it’s the handlers who often bear the cost. That’s where the London Retired Police Dogs Trust steps in. The Trust makes sure these four-legged heroes get the care they deserve to live comfortably in retirement.

10km Winter Walk Challenge to Raise Funds

To boost donations, Karen and Kerry have signed up for a 10km London Winter Walk. Karen even considered a full marathon but Kerry’s pending knee surgery meant they had to dial it back. Still, it’s no small feat — and every step counts.

How You Can Help

  • Sponsor Karen and Kerry’s walk to support retired police dogs’ welfare.
  • Add Gift Aid to your donation to boost its value at no extra cost.
  • Donate securely via their JustGiving page.

Your support ensures these brave dogs get the medical treatment and comfortable retirement they earned through loyal service to London’s streets.
