<div>Urgent Help Needed: Help Us Keep Our Ethical Dairy Running
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The Challenge We Face
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Farming isn’t just a job—it’s a commitment to producing real, nourishing food with integrity. But right now, we’re facing one of our toughest seasons yet.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My name is Jon Cook, and I’m a fourth-generation farmer. My family and I run Dora’s Dairy near Swindon, one of the few farms in the UK producing raw, unpasteurised, unhomogenised milk from grass-fed cows raised with kindness. Many of our customers rely on our milk for health reasons—from eczema and asthma to IBS and allergies. We are committed to ethical, regenerative farming, keeping calves with their mothers and ensuring our animals are cared for with the utmost respect.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>But this winter has been particularly challenging. Our income has dropped by two-thirds due to:
</div>
<div>	•	Poor fertility and aborted calves, reducing our milk supply
</div>
<div>	•	Difficult weather conditions, making it harder to produce what we need
</div>
<div>	•	Storm damage, tearing the roof off our hay barn and putting our winter feed at risk
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We’ve worked hard to push through, and this isn’t a hopeless case—just a bump in the road. With a little help to get us over this hurdle, we’ll be back on track, doing what we do best: producing high-quality raw milk and caring for our cows with the respect they deserve.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The Solution: You Can Help Keep Us Going
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We urgently need to raise £8,918 to cover critical farm costs:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>✅ Straw bill – £4,345 (To keep our cows warm, dry, and comfortable)
</div>
<div>✅ Vet bill – £1,726 (Because when our animals need care, we don’t hesitate)
</div>
<div>✅ Electric bill – £2,847 (Keeping everything running, from milking to refrigeration)
</div>
<div>✅ Storm damage repairs – Hay barn roof (Essential to protect our winter feed)
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Why Your Support Matters
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We’re not just any dairy—we’re one of the few farms in the UK producing raw, unprocessed milk from ethically raised cows. Our customers seek us out because they believe in real food, sustainable farming, and high-welfare dairy practices.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This isn’t about making a profit—it’s about keeping a small, family-run farm going. We don’t need a miracle, just a bit of support to get through this rough patch. The future of our farm is bright, and with your help, we’ll come out the other side stronger than ever.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>How You Can Help
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you believe in:
</div>
<div>	•	Sustainable, ethical farming
</div>
<div>	•	Real, unprocessed food
</div>
<div>	•	Animal welfare and humane dairy practices
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Then please consider donating. Every contribution, big or small, makes a difference. If you can’t donate, sharing this campaign with others who care about sustainable farming would mean the world to us.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your support helps ensure our cows stay fed, healthy, and housed safely through the winter. It keeps real, ethical dairy farming alive.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This is just a temporary challenge—we know that with a little help, we’ll get through it and keep moving forward.
</div>
<div><br />
