Time for tiny Wensley to shine!
Yay! This week it's the turn of tiny pony Wensley to be spoiled rotten as we celebrate his birthday at Redwings Oxhill with a fantabulous party!
Wensley’s Birthday Party will take place on Sunday 29th April, with a special birthday parade at 1pm so you can meet him and sing Happy Birthday while he munches his Carrot Birthday Cake! This will be followed by a Pass the Parcel game. Come along in the morning to see Wensley and his buddies being groomed at 11am so that they are at their “Party Best!”. There will also be a Wensley Word Quiz and lots of colouring and other activities going on all day too!
You don't have to adopt Wensley to come along to his birthday party, everyone is welcome, and entry is free of charge!
For more information email info@redwings.co.uk or telephone 0870 040 0033.
