We were very lucky and the weather was on our side, staying warm and dry all day!
Mill Cottage Farm Experience brought along many of their friends for us all to meet, including Lambs, Tortoises, Guinea Pigs and some 3 week old Piglets! Some of our visitors enjoyed cuddles with the smaller animals along with grooming some of the larger furry friends.
The Hampshire & Isle of Wight Air Ambulance came with an amazing flight simulator, and many had a go at landing a helicopter - which proved rather tricky!
Our chefs made some lovely cake for us as well, which was enjoyed with many cups of tea.
The most fantastic part of the afternoon was that we raised £833 for The Hampshire & Isle of Wight Air Ambulance, a rescue service which relies on donations alone!
Huge thanks to everyone who came along, cuddled the animals, enjoyed our gardens, flew a helicopter and helped us support such a fantastic charity!
