Please help...Easy Christmas Giving
There is a broadband company www.altohiway.com who, instead of sending cards, give money to charity each year.

Charities are nominated and put onto a list for national charities and then local Southern charities.

Hart Wildlife Rescue is a registered charity that was set up by my mum, dad, aunt and uncle. It is now run by my aunt (working full-time) and is one of the local charities that has been nominated.

Could I ask folk to spare a short moment to go onto the site and vote for them, and whilst you are there why not throw a vote in for the RNLI in the national section?

They do ask for your e-mail address to vote to prevent multiple voting, but obviously if you don't like giving it out, be warned.

Many thanks

Lou

Done. Looks like the RNLI could do with some more help, so let those fingers do the voting folks.

Yep - that is their website. It started in a shed at the bottom of our (my mum & dad's) garden and has grown. My aunt now runs a larger hospital and they have all sorts come in. They are permanently very busy, all times of the year. I don't know what the figures are now, but, for example, my mum had 30 or 40 hedgehogs wintering in the original hospital and in her dining room, and that was about 8 years ago, in just its second year. They all require cleaning out, checking and feeding twice a day. In the spring, when they are fat enough, they get "fostered". People throughout Hampshire volunteer to let them be released in their gardens - where these gardens have been assessed as suitable and safe.

Spring brings the babies - bird, fox cubs, duckling...all requiring 24 hour feeding. Then there are the call-outs to injured animals at all hours.

This is all done on a voluntary basis, so any donations they get go towards looking after the animals and reintroducing them
thanks again

Lou
