Carve a Medieval-Style Leaf Plaque

Posted on Friday 27th June 2014

A two-day course at Woods Mill taught by Janine Creaye for those who want to learn the basic techniques of woodcarving whilst creating an achievable small relief design. This course will cover the best tools to use, tool sharpening, and wood staining. A short time will be spent on the reserve looking for natural inspiration. Sussex Wildlife Trust commissioned four carvings from Janine in 2011 and they can be seen at Woods Mill, in situ, or here. Sundays 13th & 20th July, 10:00am-4:00pm, £110 for both days. Course information sheet [PDF] and booking (only two places left).

Boycee

Boycee is a charming boy who has stolen the hearts of all his carers at Dogs Trust’s Shoreham Rehoming Centre. At eight-years-old, he may be entering his senior years, but this bouncy Boxer Cross has never let go of his puppy-like ways.

He’s a playful chap who likes keeping active – either when playing a game with his toys or exploring on his walks. Most of all Boycee loves spending time with people and will make for a loyal and loving best friend once he knows you well.

A multi-person household would be ideal so that this affectionate lad always has someone nearby for a cuddle. Boycee is an avid sunbather so his dream home would have a garden of his own to relax in and for off-lead exercise. He will need to be the only pet in the household but can live with older children, aged 12 and over.

This beautiful boy will make a fun new addition to a family who will embrace his exuberant Boxer traits, and who can dedicate lots of time to him.

If you think you could be the perfect companion for Boycee, then please don’t hesitate to contact Dogs Trust Shoreham on 01273 915100. The Rehoming Centre is based at Brighton Road, Shoreham, BN43 5LT or alternatively visit www.dogstrust.org.uk.
