Shivia’s Chicken Run


Congratulations to the Shivia team in the Royal Parks Half Marathon on Sunday (10th October). Our five runners (three of them dressed as chickens) all completed the 13 mile course in a fraction under two hours.

Not only did they smash the time but they also smashed the fundraising target of £5,000. At the time of writing the total on the Just Giving page was £5,553! The money will help support our Poultry Development Services programme and allow many more women living in poverty to start their own small enterprise raising chickens and selling the produce.

So thank you to Robbie, Hettie, Will, Olly and Imke – you really went the eggs-tra mile for a good cause.

  • Agri-management Services has the capacity to deliver lasting change for our farmers. I have always felt that the farmers feed our nation while they can hardly afford to feed themselves. What an irony. So if my team and I are able to help farmers earn a sustainable income through agriculture, there’s nothing better than this.
