TV Vet Emma Milne Raising Money For The Animal Welfare Foundation (AWF) In Its 30th Anniversary Year

Emma and Donal MacIntyre What do a TV vet, an investigative journalist and staff at a Yorkshire school have in common? TV Vet Emma Milne has teamed up with friend and investigative journalist Donal MacIntyre as well as 41 staff at a North Yorkshire school to swim 300 lengths, that’s 7.5 kilometres, in Rydale Pool in Pickering, North Yorkshire, on 5 September to raise money for the Animal Welfare Foundation (AWF) in its 30th anniversary year. Emma said: “Since deciding to do the swim it’s become quite a thing and I’m really proud of everyone who’s joined in. This year is the AWF’s 30th anniversary and we desperately need more awareness of its work but also, of course, money to continue making a real impact on the welfare of thousands of animals in the UK. I have a lot of training to do still but we are all determined!” Donations can be made at www.justgiving.com/Emma-Milne300 or by texting to 70070 the donation amount (up to £10) along with the unique code ‘TAWF83’.
