Runner Spotlight – Meet Pippa!
Pippa Watson, Sussex, is an Animal Care Assistant at Raystede Centre for Animal Welfare and is running the Altra Brighton Half Marathon to raise money for the charity.
Pippa said: “Over the past year I have started running and I’m part of the Peacehaven Running Club. I’ve already taken part in a number of runs but I felt like I needed a challenge to keep me motivated and what better way than to sign up for the Brighton Half Marathon!”
“I decided to raise money for Raystede as I work within the CFS (Chelonia, Fowl & Smalls) team, so it is a cause that is very close to my heart. My section cares for a wide variety of small animals such as rabbits, guinea pigs, mice, chickens, ducks, tortoises and terrapins, that are often forgotten, misunderstood or overlooked and so I hope to raise awareness about the joy their little personalities can bring to your life and help raise money for their ongoing care and rehabilitation whilst at Raystede.”
