Help Willow at River Bourne Community Farm
Salisbury, Wiltshire, United Kingdom
Aim
Raise funds to help to pay for Willow the Alpacas medical bills.
At River Bourne Community Farm, we rely heavily on donations from visitors to pay for the daily running of the farm. This includes animal feed, shearing and farrier costs, enrichment, building materials, and most expensive of all, the veterinary bills!.
We have a lovely collection of animals at the farm including a wonderful herd of alpacas. They share their paddocks and houses with our lovely, old timer, golden guernsey goat Eric.
Unfortunately, at the end of last year, Willow the alpaca became unwell. She had examinations, bloods taken, and medications. Her liver markers are through the roof (suspected liver abscesses). Today, I was informed that she will need to go on long term antibiotics which will, with any luck, treat the abscesses.
The farm is free to visit and only asks for a £1 donation for a pot of food that visitors can use to feed most of our animals. As helpful as it is, it doesn’t go very far. I am turning to the community and wider community to ask for help. Please help us, help Willow, and help ease the cost of veterinary bills.
Thank you.
