You may not know much about Woodland Sprites, they are clever little creatures who are guardians of our natural world. From the trees above to the soil below and everything in between. 

Unbelievable, heart-warming, amazing … these are just some of the words that can’t fully describe the generosity that has been shown by our community with the aim to support those affected by the invasion of Ukraine. This week, each day, bags were being dropped off by children and family members s
