Adopt a llama & send big love to those gorgeous shaggy-coated creatures! With their funny ears & lovely little lop-sided smiles llamas are totally adorable. But some of them need your help & that's where these llama adoption kits come in. Native to the South American Andes llamas are like camels but without the hump. They can be pretty characterful as well so when having a pet llama became the must-have some owners were taken aback about how much work they can be to keep. & that's where the Southeast Llama Rescue comes in. This charitable organisation's mission is to protect the quality of life & improve the well-being of mistreated unwanted & behaviourally unmanageable llamas (yes it really does happen!) through prevention education intervention placement & lifelong care. For each adoption pack registered a donation will be made to SELR to assist initiatives such as foster care & rehousing in long-term loving homes. There's no denying llamas can be pretty f... ...

Everybody loves these adorable bundles of black & white fur so adopt a panda & help keep these rare animals from becoming extinct. By buying one of our adopt a giant panda gift boxes you will be making a contribution to a panda conservation centre in China that aims to provide a safe & natural habitat for these gorgeous bear-like creatures to thrive in. The Bifengxia Panda Centre just outside Ya'an city in the Sichuan province of central China has been open since 2002 & has nearly 1000 acres of land purely dedicated to pandas. The primary aims of the project are habitat reconstruction veterinary care a captive breeding programme research into nutrition & behaviour & ultimately a project to re-introduce adopted pandas into the wild. It is thought there are between 1000 & 3000 giant pandas living in the wild & 330 in captivity in the world. The main challenge to the panda's successful survival is logging. The deforestation & non-stop development of towns & cities means that bamboo the panda's main food source is being massively eroded. When you think bamboo only flowers once every 10 to 100 years & then dies afterwards these solitary animals are nomadic & need to roam far & wide to find sources of food & modern life is making this migration harder & harder. & that's where you come in with your panda adoption...A contribution from each adoption gift box is given to this project & may be used to fund anything from building panda 'corridors' for them to roam from area to area formula to feed baby pandas toys to keep them amused help towards healthcare costs of poorly pandas or even incubators. The centre has several younger as well as older pandas to look after who all need you. So wherever your donation goes you can feel warm glowing inside knowing that you've helped! We know it's not likely that you will get the chance to visit your adoptive four-pawed panda friend in China but the gift tin has everything you need to be able to feel close to your panda including a stunning poster information cards & certificate so you can read all about Bifengxia & the work done there. If you're anything like us the thought of 'your' panda with those just too cute black eye patches muzzle & little ears sitting up in that way that they do with a nice juicy branch of bamboo in their paws munching away is just too endearing to ignore
- so adopt a panda today for a gift that any animal lover will surely cherish.

Help these giants of the jungle when you adopt an elephant in association with the People's Trust for Endangered Species. By joining in with these elephant adoption scheme you'll be helping to support the important work being carried out in India to help protect the resident Asian Elephants. We've long been aware that the majestic Elephas Maximus is endangered. Over the years lots of important conservation work has been carried out in areas that are home to both African & Asian Elephants changing attitudes on ivory hunting & the destruction of natural habitats. In the case of the Asian Elephants you'll be supporting population numbers have gone up. That in itself is great news but the work doesn't end there... The original reserve areas secured for elephants are now often too small for the number of resident elephants. This puts them in conflict with the local communities who naturally want to protect their agriculture. The PTES's emergency work at the Mayurjharna Elephant Reserve in India for example revolves around mapping routes that the elephants use for migration. That means the seasonal movements of these magnificent mammals can be charted enabling the PTES researchers to work with communities to advise on where & when to plant crops. By buying an elephant adoption pack you will be financially aiding this important work on the ground that will enable the elephant population & the human population to live in harmony securing everyone's well-being & future. & your elephant adoption pack will be a constant reminder of this. In it there's a whole host of goodies related to all things elephant. One of the biggest questions is neatly answered with a poster detailing the differences between African & Asian Elephants. (In case you were wondering apart from living on different continents. it's all to do with the size of their ears!). Then there are loads of facts & figures about elephants for your to pour over. & once you've completed & sent off your elephant adoption registration form you'll received your personalised certificate. It takes a huge amount of human effort & cost to aid & protect elephants so by purchasing an adopt & elephant tin from Intothe Blue not only will you be making someone who loves these creatures very happy you'll also be making an elephantine contribution to the conservation scheme & research project in Asia
- & we're sure that's something these elephants will never forget!

Rev the engines & get ready for your adrenaline rally in Northamptonshire! The idea of this course is that you get down to the nitty-gritty of rallying by learning each individual technique in a series of mini workshops taking it in turns as part of a group. Each of your three driving sessions takes place in a different area of the rally school. Each one has been created to provide the perfect set up for learning the particular skills you'll be concentrating on. In the paddock you've got plenty of room to fling the car around & practice those handbrakes turns. It might look easy but it actually takes a fair amount of co-ordination between what your hands & feet are doing. Over in the power slide area you'll be learning how to grapple with oversteer on a beautifully-formed corner. It's a 200m arc with the ideal angles for getting your car to slide gracefully around. No doubt you'll have a couple of missed attempts where you over or even under cook it but hopefully by the end of your turn you'll have nailed it! The skid pan is where you learn your figure of eights & doughnuts. These crowd-pleaser moves get the adrenaline going as you throw your rally car around this Northamptonshire pan. Again it's tricky to smoothly execute the moves but you'll be getting in-car training from some of the best (and most patient) instructors out there. As for the car you'll be learning these rally moves in you can't get much more seminal than the Subaru Impreza. They are the real workhorses of this rally school. They don't mind how many stalls or spins out you have these iconic cars just keep on going. Sure they're not the latest generation of rally car but they are certainly one of the best to drive even years after their WRC heyday. If you like your old school Subaru rallying you'll love the adrenaline rally in Northamptonshire! ...
