What a laugh! The very first Isle of Wight Twestival is over, with over £1300 raised for Gift to Nature.

Gift to Nature beeSome 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!
