How the journey began…
John began fundraising back in 2010 and the rest as they say, is history!
Working in Yorkshire, Lancashire and Lincolnshire managing and leading various teams, John has always been at the top of his game. Able to self motivate and keep energy levels high, he’s at his happiest mentoring and helping others to achieve their own goals. All done whilst still leading from the front.
Whilst there have been stints on other campaigns such as Guide Dogs, WWF and The Wildlife Trusts (conservation is another of his big passions) his knowledge and love of Dogs, always led him back to Dogs Trust.
Having worked in the charity sector as a Venue Co - Ordinator on The Wildlife Trust and The Armed Forces Charity - SSAFA campaigns, Amanda’s journey with Dogs Trust started in 2021 and venue finding in Scotland, just as it was coming out of lock down was definitely a baptism of fire!
Starting our own agency together has been a longtime dream. Securing such a large area supporting Dogs Trust - the icing on the cake!
The Pulse journey has well and truly begun. The team’s growing fast and we are already making our mark.
Having started out with the S, DN, HU & LN postcodes, the addition of extra territory taking on DE, NG, LE & PE in 2025 has almost doubled the territory our Pulse Fundraisers now cover.
Pulse were recently awarded…
Agency of the Year 2025
from M3 Marketing Ltd in recognition of our team ethos and to acknowledge the hard work, commitment and quality of all the fundraising that Pulse does for Dogs Trust.
We couldn’t be prouder of our fundraisers and the part they play in Pulse’s success. We know that an exciting future lays ahead for everyone at Pulse.
We may have lots of fundraising history, but look out future because…
HERE WE COME!

“Motivation comes from within, I’m here to help you activate it, and keep it going.”
