A New Warden at Shallowford

Will goes up before the Judge
Dear all, We finally got Will up before the judge! Well done to Johnny for setting in up, and who knows where it may lead. Useful too to see how relatively straightforward such an outreach exercise is. For the Health & Wellbeing week in Exeter we took along some of the Shallowford animals to … Read more

Let it Snow, let it snow
