On the day we raised £4,000 vital funds needed to keep our voluntary charity running. Although the doors officially opened at 11am, there was a steady queue forming by 10:30 and people were…
This week we have taken on a further 120 ex-battery hens that would otherwise be slaughtered. The farm in Norfolk where we fetched them from, was emptying their sheds, replacing 20,000 birds with young hens, to keep the egg yield high.
