Helping Hillside

A few days ago I posted about ways to help Hillside Animal Sanctuary, who are in desperate need of more funds.


One good way to raise some money for them are the new "Guess the Name of the Animal" competitions.

Me with the cuddly dog!

For £5 (which you can claim back later if you want), you get a cuddly dog or donkey toy, a big card with 30 possible names for your chosen animal, and an envelope containing the name of the animal. For a £1 a go, you get friends, family, and basically anyone you know, to guess the name of the animal. Once all 30 possible names have been chosen, you open the envelope to reveal the real name for the cuddly animal. The person who guessed the correct name wins the cuddly animal! It's a fun way to raise some funds for Hillside, and it also helps raise awareness, letting people know that Hillside Animal Sanctuary exists. I recommend ordering some leaflets (which are free, though of course you can donate to help cover their costs if you can) to give out when people guess the cuddly's name.

I went for the dog, which is very cute and soft, and a good size, too! It came with some back copies of Hillside's newsletter for me to give to those who take part to find out more about Hillside.
