Re the rescue from Lincolnshire previously posted.
I have just learnt from the farmer that instead of next month he has decided to turn out his hens next Wednesday, so if we are to bring out any hens we have to do so on TUESDAY next week. This is a month ahead of plan, so I know that this will mean we lose a lot of our rescuers. BUT DON'T STOP READING!
We are still trying to maximise our rescue by:
- having a number of co-ordination/collection centres in London, Spalding, Hampshire (to be confirmed), Bishops Stortford and Harrogate , for collection of hens on Tuesday
- Keeping some hens overnight or longer to allow later collection, maybe up till next weekend
- Helping deliver hens to help people without transport.
If you are able to rehome birds at such short notice, PLEASE fill in the questions below and email to me at carly@northlondonhenrescue.org.uk, even if you've already posted to me - the extra information will allow me to do the background logistics, fit everything together and rescue as many as possible, now or later. (I’ll also be sending a version of this by email to everyone who’s expressed an interest so far – please fill it in either way, but only once, or I’ll think you’re two people….)
1. Numbers
How many hens are you looking to rehome? (now or later this summer)? <number: >
Would you be able to take them next week, or would you rather go for July or September?
2. Transport
- Would you be able to drive to collect your hens from the nearest collection point to you <yes/no/ up to maximum miles…. >
- Would you want to collect from London / Harrogate / Bishops Stortford / Spalding / Hampshire?
- would you be able to do a modest detour to drop off hens to other rehomers on your way back <yes/no>
- would you need someone to bring hens to my address / closer to you?
- would you be willing for your phone number to be given to someone else who might liaise with you about transport?
3. Availability
If you are able to take hens from the rescue next week, would you be able to collect on tuesday afternoon / evening ?
Or not till later in week (before Sunday 1 June )
4. Your details
(just give one person's details now - if you are collecting hens for anyone else, please bring this information with you on the day)
