NEWARK LIVESTOCK MARKET PLEDGE TO FLOOD HIT FARMERS & THOSE MORE CLOSE TOO HOME!! We have experienced some pretty horrific weather so far in 2014, but nothing like that experienced by The Farming Fraternity in the West Country, and in particular The Somerset Levels. We are reminded of the difficulties that they face in terms of flooding not only of farmland but also of buildings, stacks and clamps of fodder and straw. To watch James Winslade have to evacuate cattle from his farm shows the harsh reality and emotion of the flooding, but also the amazing spirit that the Local Community have to dig in and help. Although nearly 200 miles away, we too at Newark Livestock Market and Our Farmers are committed to help those in need. We are therefore trying to co-ordinate sending hay, straw and fodder to them or some Financial Aid. If you have any loads of fodder then please contact us in order to arrange for collection and delivery to affected areas. If you only have a few bales we will be happy for them to be dropped at The Market until a Load is ready to go. If you do not have fodder but would like to pledge financially please make cheques payable to Newark Livestock Market and send them to Somerset Flood Appeal c/o Newark Livestock Market, Great North Road, Newark, Nottinghamshire, NG24 1BY. Or just drop whatever spare change or notes you have in your pockets in the Buckets in The Market Office! Thank You for Your Support!!!
