We're always incredibly grateful when local businesses choose to spend their corporate responsibility and team days with us, and recently we were delighted to welcome teams from WSCC Life Long Services and Southern Water.

With our 40th Anniversary Gala Dinner taking place last night, there was plenty to do, and both groups played a key role in helping us get everything ready. Their hard work, dedication and positive attitude made a huge difference.

Thank you for helping us celebrate this important milestone. We loved having you here!

🚣‍♂️ One Scarecrow, One Mile, One Incredible Challenge! 🌾

Stuart, the wonderful organiser of the Ferring Scarecrow Festival, is taking on an extraordinary rowing challenge to raise funds for our dear friends at Wadars Animal Rescue! 🐾❤️

For every scarecrow entered into this year’s Ferring Scarecrow Festival, Stuart will row one mile!

And where better to kick things off than Ferring Country Centre? 💚 Stuart is starting his challenge with an incredible 40 miles in honour of our 40 scarecrows, celebrating our 40th anniversary!

A huge thank you to Lizzie Webb for joining us to make the grand reveal of just how many miles Stuart will be rowing over the next week!

Stuart is aiming to row a full marathon today alone! 💪🚣‍♂️

We wish Stuart the very best of luck with this fantastic challenge and can’t wait to follow his progress. Let’s show him some support! 👏
