The Big Clean Up

Anyone who feels like some fresh air and a bit of work out over Christmas is invited to help with the big Foal Farm tidy up- the perfect antidote to too many mince pies. Please let one of the office staff or managers know if you are interested.

Chip and Pin

In another step to improving customer service at Foal Farm we have now got a chip and pin machine in the office so animal fees can be paid using credit cards.
We hope that this is helpful to all you kind people that adopt an animal from Foal Farm.

Gift Fare 2008

A big thank you to all those who came to the Gift Fair in Keston yesterday and also to the volunteers who worked so hard to make it a great success.

The theme this year was "Around the World" as demonstrated by Pat Mack and daughter on the book stall. Ooh la la!

We would also like to thank the Mayor of Bromley, Councillor Denise Reddin for paying a visit to the Fair, even though she had already had a busy morning of engagements relating to Remembrance Sunday. She even put up with a kiss from the pantomime dames at the door!

Congratulations to this year's raffle winners. Andrew Offer won first prize of £500, Janet Sach won the second prize of £200 and Helen Long won the third prize of £100. We hope that the winnings bring you lots of joy.

Don't forget that this year's annual Gift Fare at Keston Village Hall is on Sunday 9th November in the afternoon. There will be music, stalls, games, and lots of goodies for sale. The Mayor of Bromley will be popping in to say hello and the homemade cakes will be better than ever,

See you there.

Sunday 21st September

Lat Sunday was one of the busiest days we have had in a long time. Thank you very much to the kind people that agreed to give a home to a cat or dog or who came and bought goodies in our Charity Shop.


Because we were so busy we understand that some of you had a long wait to be served in our reception area and we apologise for that. We are busy training our new member of the administration team - Lee - and we hope that we will be able to avoid queues at the week-end in future.

We are delighted to welcome Buster to our Dog's Blog. It sounds like he has really landed on his paws in his new home!

Cats

Sadly it's that time of year - the summer holidays are over and people are facing a winter of high energy bills and expensive food. Many decide that they can no longer afford to keep their cats.

We have a record number of unwanted cats at Foal Farm at the minute and there is a long waiting list of cats waiting to come in to us for rehoming.

If anyone can offer a home to one of these lovely creatures, please get in touch.

Phones

Good news - Foal Farm is getting a proper phone system!
We know that many of our supporters have found it frustrating trying to get through to us on the phone, so we are investing in a new system to help out with this. There will still be busy times when we can not answer your call, but we hope that this will be less often.
The system should be up and running by the middle of September.

Foal Farm Country Festival 2008

A big thank-you to everyone who made this year's Country Festival such a huge success.
Without the hard work of the staff and volunteers we would not be able to manage such a popular event. The money raised is much needed.
See you all again next year!
