Thank you!

What a fun day out to Hudnall Park Go Wild!! We are having such a lovely time with all the families roaming around the countryside! Such a relief to get out of London during the heatwave and breathe the fresh air!
Den building, hammock chilling, hiding & seeking, rope swinging & making bird feeders!
Huge thanks to our funders @bbccin for enabling this to happen and to the team @go_wild_at_hudnall for welcoming us and running such fun sessions!

Our new bantam (miniature) chickens are settling in well at #PhoenixFarmInWhiteCity. These lovely girls were donated by a neighbour, who wanted to responsibly rehome their flock.
While we fortunately had space in this particular instance, we are not an animal rehoming centre.
The city farms (@socialfarmsandgardens) want the best possible outcomes for animal care and welfare. If your local farm cannot take in an animal, please understand that they are working with very limited space, resources, and money. We are very small charities. Please take the advice of animal care workers/farmers and contact local animal shelters to find a new home for your pet.
Please be aware that abandoning an animal is against the law, as per The Abandonment of Animals Act 1960.
Please rehome your animal responsibly.

We hope you’ll be able to make it!

Phoenix Farm in White City is closed today and tomorrow (Tuesday 19th July) due to the current Heat Health Alert.
We will be back to regularly scheduled activities on Thursday.
Stay sun safe, cool, and hydrated!
Rest assured that people are checking on chickens and plants during this heatwave.
So lovely to have our volunteers together for our (normally) annual volunteer lunch. We've missed this event as it is one of our favourites of the year. Thanks to our local Coop store for providing lots of the food. Lovely to see some of our partners as well @coopuk @waesonline @hfcouncil @wcclibrariesandarchives
We've been busy as bees at #PhoenixFarmInWhiteCity. On Friday, we hived our new nuc that arrived from @localhoneymanuk. This was just days after we spotted a new swarm of bees moving into our old hive!! Looks like they are all settling into their new homes 🐝❤️
