Charity encourages breakfasters to join in fun

Dogs for the Disabled is asking people to join in with its Big Dogs Breakfast week, held between Monday 2 and Sunday 8 September.

During the week people are being encouraged to get together for the most important meal of the day, to help raise awareness and funds for the charity.

Anyone who holds or attends a Big Dogs Breakfast will be able to share their stories, photos and recipes on the Dogs for Disabled Facebook page.

While dogs are optional attendees, the week is being supported by the charity's mascots Toastie and Honey.

Be it at the crack of dawn or mid-morning brunch, at home or at work, greasy or healthy, the charity has teamed up with James Wellbeloved to offer Big Dogs Breakfast boxes to those who join in.

The boxes, which contain invitations, posters, napkins, cups, table mats, Toastie facemasks and a banner, can be reserved here.

Those who are unable to join in with the Big Dogs Breakfast but would like to make a donation may do so here.
