Running for Club’s raffle

Norman for IMHA

Jack Rampling took on the Leeds
Marathon to raise money for us to help
other animals after his dog, Norman,
received life-saving care at the RVC
Small Animal Referrals Hospital.
Norman had three surgeries and
received intensive care after repeated
bouts of sepsis caused by a hidden
grass seed. Thanks to the care he
received, he has been off medication
for over two months and is back to
his happy, playful self.
Jack’s efforts raised over £2,500 to help
other critically ill pets like Norman.
