A parachute jump by daredevil Becky Conner. Becky tells us “I have been a member of the Dr Hadwen Trust for a number of years, as non-animal based research is so under-funded by the government and I wanted to do something about it. I also wanted to raise awareness of the charity, enabling people to find out more.”
You can support Becky by helping her raise funds for the Dr Hadwen Trust’s life-saving work. Donations can either be posted to Dr Hadwen Trust, 84A Tilehouse Street, Hitchin, Herts, SG5 2DY, or card donations on 01462 436 819 and online at www.drhadwentrust.org/beckyconner
The best of luck, Becky!

A sponsored walk taking in the scenic Welsh boarder along Offa’s Dyke, from Prestatyn to Chepstow by supporter Pat Innocent. Pat plans to walk 20 miles each day and would love the company of any of our supporters who wish to join her at any point along the way. This is a spectacularly beautiful route taking in ancient woodlands, river valleys, wild moorland, hill forts, castles and abbeys.
Pat told us “I read an article in She magazine about 25 years ago about the Dr Hadwen Trust and it just got to me so much. I knew you were the charity for me. Medical research is one of the most cruel practices that happens to animals, and I hope my walk will help highlight your wonderful non-animal research and raise lots of money.”
To join Pat on her adventure call us on 01462 436 819 and show your support with a donation to Dr Hadwen Trust, 84A Tilehouse Street, Hitchin, Herts. SG5 2DY or at www.drhadwentrust.org/patinnocent
