Well after some initial teething problems for a couple of days our new website finally hit the worldwide web and we are happy to say initial feedback has been good and it is working well. We must thank Mercury1 for their kind generosity to build the site and host it for us for free, without this type of support charities like ours would find it difficult to survive. Special thanks also to Tara from Mercury1 for her help and support in building the site and to Sharon who works for UK Youth and has been key to putting our pages together and redoing them whenever we have had a new bright idea. We know the new website will reach many more groups and individuals and they can now see easily what we have to offer. http://www.avontyrrell.org.uk/.
Last week we had a visit from Townhill Junior School and they had an absolutely splendid week and all the children completed successfully the Junior Achievement Award, so well done to them for doing so well. At the weekend we had the second of 3 visits in successive weeks from Greg City Academy and again it was good to see everyone having a great time. We have also seen the return of campers now our campsites are open.
It has been a fine few days working on the Reed Bed and we are beginning to see the site take shape.
As for the new Volunteer and Staff Lodge, again an amazing few days which has seen the roof fitted and the start of the first fix for plumbing and electrics.
Finally for our followers in New Zealand and Australia, do you recognise this pair and note the exclusive shopping bags……
Remember… it's good to laugh

How could we miss that winning Kiwi smile. It is no wonder the smiles are so wide, working with such a great bunch, in such a cool environment!
The new website and the blog are a great way to share all the exciting things that are happening at Avon Tyrrell!
Keep smiling!
