April 2025 – Spring Open weekend at the Farm Animal Sanctuary, and Accessories month for Link to Hope shoeboxes.
The Farm Animal Sanctuary
It’s not too late to donate towards the cost of replacing the Sanctuaries stolen ATV. Or you could sponsor an animal or become a regular donor – the cost of caring for over 600 rescued animals isn’t cheap. And you could buy tickets to their open weekend on 26 and 27 April. There’ll be delicious food and non-alcoholic drinks on sale as well as some local crafts people selling their goods – and me selling handmade items on 27th with all the profits from my stall supporting The Farm Animal Sanctuary. Look around the farm and visit the rescued animals.

The theme for April is accessories – Bring fun with hair accessories, jewellery, small bags/purses, umbrella, sunglasses. Check out my previous April blogs for more detailed suggestions for items to include.
