Today we decided to 'cook' raw. Having an extremely sweet-tooth I am always looking for something to satisfy my cravings and these tasty treats made from dried fruits, nuts and honey are the perfect solution for us. We have a basic recipe, and added in variations of our own to create even more-ish flavours!
The British Wildlife Centre was founded by David Mills, in the heart of Surrey in 1997 and today this exceptional centre is home to a large variety of British wildlife. The centre is open every weekend and Bank Holiday. For other days, during term times, the Centre accommodate school visits from the region and feel it is very important that children have the opportunity to see and learn more about our own native wildlife, so that they may develop a life-long interest in its protection and survival into the future.
Congratulations to winners, Gill Gaffney (Fife) and Emma Louise Jaynes (Kent).
