Campaign for toads off to a great start!

Our Tuppence a Toad campaign got off to a flying start with our pyjama party on Friday. A big thank you to all who came and to all the staff, trustees and toad patrollers who made the night a great success.

Toad Ambassador Nathalie Cox hosted the evening, with interesting talks from CEO Kathy Wormald, Trustees Rob Oldham and John Walker. The evening was rounded off with a toast to Mr Toad, who then drove off into the night with a ‘poop-poop’ in his toad mobile! (Some of the Froglife team are pictured in the toad car below).

Warty, inscrutable, vulnerable, resilient, beautiful, brave, lovable, bizarre and lonely were just a few of the words we collected from guests to canvas opinion about these small amphibians. The launch was just the beginning to a yearlong push to save more toads, over the course of which we aim to improve opinions and chances for toads.
