Donations

Thursday, October 16th 2014

Down in the diary for today was emptying and counting the donations from our money spinner, found in the entrance of the Field Centre. Volunteers helped us to count the donated money, the total of which was £452. Garth, an ex-bank manager, was clearly excited as can be seen; he counted the money twice just for the sheer pleasure, slipping back into old habits.

Foxglove is free to all who visit, though it does cost over £100,000 per year to run. Donations are the life blood of the reserve and we are very grateful to everyone who has visited and contributed to us in this way.

In other news, three Otters have been seen this afternoon; a family was lucky enough to get fantastic views of them from near the lake hide, moving up the stream towards the weir and then swimming across the lake.
