Supporting the British Hen Welfare Trust

As part of its commitment to supporting the British Hen Welfare Trust, Dengie will donate £6,000 to the charity, raised through sales of Fresh Bed for Chickens over the next year.

“We’ve been proud to work in partnership with Dengie Fresh Bed since 2014,” said Megan Holland, Corporates and Trusts Manager at the BHWT. “From the beginning they have understood the ethos of our charity and have helped us reach several exciting milestones, most recently the rehoming of our one millionth hen! We’re happy to recommend Fresh Bed to our adopters and supporters, knowing it gives hens the cosy, luxurious and fresh smelling nest they deserve.”
