A mother and her son are walking a whopping 32 miles (around 64,000 steps!) to raise funds for the BHWT. Kim Chandler and her 12-year-old son Dominic will leave their six chickens at home when they tackle their challenge along the Basingstoke Canal in August.
Ever wondered what you could do with your surplus vegetables or flowers from your garden? How about selling them from your front door in order to raise money for the BHWT! That’s what Liz does from her home in Bedfordshire! Read more about Liz’s fundraising adventure…
Last month we were contacted by Becky Griffiths, a long-standing supporter of the BHWT. She brought news of her daughter, Lucy, who had set up a JustGiving page to fundraise for the BHWT by spending a night in the bath! We just had to get in touch and find out how she did! Looking at her page, Lucy reveals “Next Wednesday I am going to sleep in the bath for British Hen Welfare Trust because my discomfort will be nothing to a hen’s life” and boy did she do well!
This month, Mochdre Veterinary Practice in Wales named us their charity of the month. Read how we got the honour.
