The event at RSPB Pulborough on 22 January 2022 was our fund raiser for this year and the £1,458 generated was split equally between the charities. HOH also benefitted for the selling of some of Phill's old tools , along with other generous donations from members, to make the total donation to them of £915.
Both charities are greatly appreciative of the donations and have sent letters of thanks. Chailey acknowledged that the Society has donated over £7,000 to the Foundation since 2015, which is a tremendous effort.
More information can be found out about both organisations by visiting their websites:-

Below is a photo from 2020 showing Phill Piddell in typical action , giving instruction to volunteers at HoH ; one can well imagine what he is saying to them. We miss Phill greatly.
