Patricia and Tapiwa – walking to help IFAW’s CLAW sterilise 2,000 dogs and cats in South Africa.  

South African radio and television celebrity Patricia Glyn has embarked on an epic “Walk of Discovery” to raise money for IFAW’s CLAW projects.

A “Walk of Discovery” adventure in Africa
Patricia Glyn, well known South African celebrity and great-great neice of Richard and Robert Glyn will follow in her ancestor's footsteps, when she walks approximately 2,000 kilometres (about 30 kilometres a day) across southern Africa, using the 19th century hunter/trader routes from Durban to arrive at Victoria Falls on 22 July. Keeping her company on this epic adventure will be her little African dog Tapiwa.
