Help the ASU through Covid-19

The Agricultural Science unit at Saffron Walden County high school is a self funded department within the school, that delivers education and learning regarding all aspects of animal care and management. We as a department are responsible for raising money to support the animals within the unit and we have done this in previous years by holding extra curricular activities and events for the general public.

Unfortunately due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we have not been able to do any fundraising since Christmas 2019. This had meant we are now struggling to keep funding the care of our animals, and since we had particular difficult winter in regards to the weather, some of our animals enclosures now need repairing or replacing entirely. 

We are hoping to be able to raise some money to buy some materials to repair and replace our animal shelters and fencing until we are able to hold events again. This will mean we can continue to deliver our specialised courses to the students we already have, and any future students that wish to study with us and maintain our high standards of welfare for our animals.
