We just want to say a huge, huge thank you to everyone that helped out and supported our first open day on Sunday. We are so, so grateful to so many people.  We raised nearly £2,000 with more money still being pledged which is more than we ever hope for.

We want to say a special thank you to the following without whose help the open day and our rescue work could not continue:

The Speight Family who instigated the day in the first place!

The Burton Family who appear every day come rain or shine.

The Moles family, especially Matt who does all the marvellous photography and keeps our website looking amazing…………as well as everything else he does around the rescue centre.

Kim and Hannah who travel so far to help out and bake cakes.

Jo M who makes delicious pizza and has helped so much every week for so long.

The Parr family for their continued support for our bunnies.

Emma, Abi and family for helping out and looking after Charlotte.

Nottingham AR – Dave O, Andy & Linzi, Lorraine & Gary, Danny and Lee.

Sheffield Animal Friends who come over regularly to help us.

The cake bakers and promoters – (the Hammonds, Jen Wheeler and her family).

Alma who takes on the most problematic bunnies and nurses them back to health.

Amanda Richardson who tidies up after us and makes us mow the lawn!

Thanks also to the businesses that gave raffle prizes and have supported us:
