Yorkshire-based birder Mark Pearson is running a half-marathon on 28th April and is raising funds to help support the fantastic work of raptor rehabilitation legend Jean Thorpe, in Ryedale, North Yorkshire.

If you’ve spent any time following this blog you’ll no doubt be familiar with Jean’s incredible work – many victims of raptor persecution have ended up under her expert care and she’s managed to get some of them back to full health and release them back the wild.
Mark is trying to raise £1,000 to support Jean’s work.
Come on, this should be do-able, surely?

Many thanks.
