Some felted items made by volunteers to raise funds for the sanctuary.

We are part of the international volunteer network Willing Workers On Organic Farms (WWOOF), which brings volunteers from all over the world. One year we had 15 different nationalities – the world really does come to Hillswick! Jan says: "Sometimes it's like sitting at the League of Nations!"
