What a laugh! The very first Isle of Wight Twestival is over, with over £1300 raised for Gift to Nature.
Some pledges are still coming in and it’s not too late to donate using our handy Paypal button (on the right), so we expect this total to rise!
Many, many thanks to our generous sponsors, artists and of course the Twestival crowd.
Look out for another event soon!

At tonight’s Twestival there is an extraordinary, unprecedented chance to bid for Son of Leek Rabbit in our massive charity auction.
Bizarrely it seems that there are some who don’t appreciate the significance, and sinister implications, of this. For your own safety it would be best if you acquainted yourself with his infamous progenitor…

The Island’s MP, Andrew Turner, is getting the Twestival spirit! He has generously donated a bottle of House of Commons Blended Scotch Whisky for the Twestival auction. The blurb on the natty presentation box states:
The House of Commons Blended Scotch Whisky is fruity and mellow with a hint of spice. Matured, selected and blended by Gordon and McPhail of Elgin, Scotland - a family owned and run company with more than one hundred years of experience in creating and bottling the finest Scotch whiskies.
At 40% vol it should have you rolling in the aisles! Thanks Mr Turner.
