Mayoral Visit






The Worshipful the Mayor of Bromley, Councillor Denise Reddin and her Consort, Martyn Reddin, visited Foal Farm on Sunday to officially open the new Memorial Garden and the Bunny Park. We had a great day and the weather stayed sunny. The Mayor is a lovely warm and generous lady and she even gave one of the bunnies a big kiss for the camera!
This picture shows the Mayor with Jill Clifton, a volunteer who has designed and built the new memorial garden at Foal Farm. If you would like to buy a plaque for your pet, please contact us at tribute@foalfarm.org.uk.
Although not completely finished, the new Bunny Park will soon be open to visitors, so please come and see it over the Bank Holiday week-end.
Also, check out the new staff uniforms!

Smelly Dogs and Cats.


Have you got a Smelly Dog or Cat yet?

No not the furry sort but a fabulous new car air freshener.

We have them in the Pet Shop in a great range of Dog and Cat breeds.

At only £1.99 they are really good value and fun to have in the car. Mind you a lot of children are buying them (Maybe to hang in their bedrooms.)

We are of to Peckham on Sunday 19th April to have a Foal Farm stall at Warwick Gardens "Dog--Day Arf--ternoon"

There will be a fun dog show, pet photographer, free micro-chipping etc,etc.

If you are in the area come and see us.Warwick Gardens,Lyndhurst Way, Peckham SE15 from 12noon --4pm.

From clown to....clown?



Here's our very own Lee being transformed into a clown on Bunny Sunday....

Bunny Sunday











What a fantastic day we had on Bunny Sunday, despite the grey and damp weather. The Easter Bunny had a basket full of treats that were very popular and lots of new bunnies kept mysteriously appearing all over the
farm!

There was an Easter Egg Hunt near to the tea room and Owen, Joel, Ewan, Millie, Ciaran, Caitlin, Jemma, Joshua, Cameron, Aidan, George, Harry, Olivia, Ellis, Danielle, Grace, Ella, Adam, Jordan, Nicola, Rebecca, Andrew, Thomas, and Pippa all found the 10 hidden animals and won a prize.

Thank you all for your support and we hope to see you back at Foal Farm soon.

Beat the Recession Blues at Foal Farm

If you are feeling a bit down and trying to cut back on shopping or entertainment, why not come and volunteer at Foal Farm? It can be very rewarding, great fun, and, of course, benefits the many cats, dogs and small animals that are taking refuge whilst waiting for a new home. We are currently looking for helpers in the shops and tea room, and DIY skills (there are always plenty of maintenance jobs to be done). There are also vacancies in animal care which are advertised in the "Work at the Farm" section of the web site.
Hope to see you soon.
