We had an excellent day yesterday at the Christmas Without Cruelty Festival in Exeter at the Corn Exchange. It's a really well organised, friendly event with lots of stalls run by different animal, people and environmentally friendly charities/organisations/companies selling all sorts of gifts and foods for Christmas. It just the right size...it's big but not too big, so there's plenty of room for people to wander at their own speed and to talk and find out more about each of the organisations present. We had our stall set up with all our lovely goods to sell - pony Christmas cards, calendars, mugs, jewellery, jams, marmalades, plants and cooking apples...and it looked very pretty.
We sold lots of items on our stall - amazingly we were nearly sold out on the Christmas cards with just 2 designs left, we were "sold out" on some of our jewellery items...we sold 35 jars of Margaret's home-made jams and marmalades! Altogether we raised £205.36 on our stall and it was great to be able to share our campaigning work and gain support from so many new people who just didn't realise what happens to wild ponies in the UK. It was our first time attending this festival and we'd really like to return next year!
