We have had a clear out of our news page and deleted old posts. There hasn’t been much news this year as everyone within the heritage industry is still adjusting to the internal changes within English Heritage which have had wide reaching effects and are still in flow.
We have had a better year than anticipated picking up some new clients and making new contacts for the future. We already have dates in the diary for 2026 and some new venues on the cards too which is always exciting. We made a decision going into this year that we would start to slowly reduce the amount of work we do to cut back a bit on travelling, using the geographical dynamics of our support team to better effect and by not saying yes to everything. It was a good decision and so we shall continue with that strategy moving forward.
Our biggest news is that we rehomed Imperious this summer. She was getting left at home with increasing frequency due to many of our venues being unsuitable for her to fly at and that was starting to become a concern. She now lives with a friend in Northumberland who operates a small falconry establishment specialising in experience days, she doesn’t travel anymore and gets flown every day by her regular handler. It was the right decision and the best home we could find for her.
We have just one public event remaining this season and it’s a biggie; The Battle of Hastings. It’s always a huge push delivering falconry at this event due to the logistics of the venue and the time of year, it comes as we are winding down the team for the winter and yet the event demands everything to be on top form. It will be the last event for many of our birds before we put them down to rest for the winter, save for a few who work on our local estate with private guests. There will be news to come over the winter but we will save that for a later time.
