Join in on Belinda’s dog walk for Moya Cole Hospice
The charity dog walk will be taking place this Sunday, March 29
Belinda Neild will be leading the way this Sunday as she embarks on her upcoming charity dog walk in aid of Moya Cole Hospice. All are welcome to participate.
The event is being organised with Worsley Old Hall.
The school teacher from Salford is aiming to reach an astonishing £50,000 raised for the hospice by her 50th birthday in July.
She has previously run marathons, organised events and charity walks, and even ran the 70-mile length of Hadrian’s Wall, all in aid of the hospice who cared for her mum, Joyce.
The charity dog walk will be taking place at Worsley Old Hall, Walkden Road at 10am until noon this Sunday, March 29th.
It is a 5k circle route and there will be complimentary pastries available.
There’s no charge to take part, donations on the day for Moya Cole Hospice. Any contribution, big or small, will be gratefully received.
The last time we did a walk, over 150 turned up but this time around it might be different as it is centred around dogs. I don’t know what to expect, but it would be lovely to see a great turn out to raise money for such a wonderful cause Belinda Neild, Moya Cole Hospice Supporter

The main event of Belinda’s fundraising efforts this year for Moya Cole Hospice will be a 100-mile Ultramarathon taking place just after her 50th birthday in July where she will be running from Bamburgh Castle in Northumberland along the Scottish coast and finishing at Edinburgh Castle.
“I’m training well. Training with Salford Mets and Manchester Outdoor Fitness Heaton Park. I’m following a plan. I’ve been doing lots of trails ,hills, speed and running back to back long runs over the weekends. I’m training to run on tired legs as it is important for an Ultramarathon training. Sometimes proves very difficult inbetween teaching.
“My husband, Stephen will be running the Ultra Marathon which will be fantastic.
“Sadly, my dad, Roy died before Christmas Day, and it’s been tough but running has been helping with my grief. This run is going to be an extra special one because I want to do it for him as well. He was always a supporter of Moya Cole and my fundraising,” Belinda said.
Belinda is less than £6,000 away from reaching her goal of raising a cumulative £50,000 for Moya Cole Hospice since she began fundraising for the hospice. You can help her reach her target before her 50th birthday by donating, here.
