This year we were excited to be successful Lotterywest Grant
recipients! Our request had included a volunteer and visitor ablution block and
emergency generator to supply power to the Sanctuary during outages.
The ablution block provides an accessible facility for the
Sanctuary visitors and volunteers and includes a toilet, sink and shower. Arriving in September, we were very appreciative of Neil Gill Trucking and Hiab
for volunteering their time and truck to safely deliver the building to the
Valley. It was no small feat, with Neil and his partner skillfully guiding
their way through the tree-lined driveway and placing the cargo perfectly into
position!
The emergency generator is a critical addition to the property,
especially during summer, given the Sanctuary water supply is dependent on
electricity. This generator will ensure we can operate all our water
pumps and defend the property from fire if needed. It also means a
guaranteed supply of fresh water to troughs and ponds is available during outages,
which will be a huge help in the summer months in keeping our animal residents
happy and healthy.
Thank you Lotterywest for your support! To see some of
