Guest Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 I looked at it the other day and had to double-check where I was! Great site. Buffie, can I get a BHWT cardboard collecting box? I want to have a proper donation box for when I give away eggs. (Do you know what I mean? I've had one from The Children's Society, Mercy Ships, Send a Cow and currently Church Urban Fund) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 It looks very good Buffie and is easy to navigate and not too graphic intense-meaning it's relatively quick on our slow old computer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think we have these and perhaps it can be something for the future. I am hoping we may have a downloadable template for egg boxes at some point.

craftyhunnypie Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Collection boxes would be a wonderful idea. The website is wonderful - love the hen of the month, the egg custard tart story made me choke back the tears - the poor little girl! It would be good if they had a bit more merchandise, as not everyone can offer a home to ex batts & some people already have a bag, keyring & sonsor a hen. I'm not sure what other merchandise they could sell - but to have a bit more to buy with the logo on would be lovely! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura & CTB Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I'm not sure what other merchandise they could sell - but to have a bit more to buy with the logo on would be lovely! Emma.x Maybe a different coloured fleece or a range of various coloured t shirts for the summer!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffie Posted January 7, 2008 Author Share Posted January 7, 2008 We have to be careful we spend as much money on the cause and not on items that sit for ages, in my loft or BHWT HQ.We do always listen to ideas though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A downloadable template for the box would be good. I could print or stick it onto card. The Mercy Ships box came as a 'flat-pack'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubereglu Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Also on your map with rescue co-ordinators could it be a bit more precise and say which bit of the county it's in-say Shepton Mallet, Somerset. Or whether they're south of the county or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I'd like a cardboard box to put change in - I know some of my kids would too. 2 of my year 10 class told me they already had HFW set up on record for tonight and several of the others said they would watch and try and get their parents to watch. I did warn them it may contain some very upsetting scenes of animal cruelty but that this is everyday stuff these poor birds go through (rather hoping not to get calls from irate parents tomorrow - wondering how this links into the ICT curriculum) Just to cover my back I linked it to the curriculum today - these kids needed to compare some website designs so I sent them to BHWT, Jamie O and HFW!

She's lovely though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 ubereglu - your ICT teacher sounds like she has a very similar teachign style to me. There aren't any jobs going there are there? I'm looking... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
