Genetic Spread Allowance
As of 28th February 2023, the charity has supported the move of 41 pigs all across the UK, adding key bloodlines to regions without or with low levels. Our supporters have clocked up a whopping 13,000 miles, this is the same distance as the earth is to the GPS Satellite Navstar 66 in orbit above us

The pigs themselves have travelled 6,477 miles, this is equal to the diameter of the earth.
Since the last update we have support the moves of Clare, Dandy and Mary lines, along with a crackingAlistair boar from the far north of England to Cambridge in east Anglia.
Our program has donated £4,200 to our members, supporting them with these key moves to diversify and conserve our dynamic Oxford Sandy and Black.
