Mary Alice Pollard needs very little introduction to the "animal world" and the world of compassion and kindness.
A feisty sprite, a whimsical fairy, an artistic, multi talented whiz kid and an ardent defender of the voiceless, Mary Alice is known and loved by all except aliens who have been waylaid on a flight path to Earth and have yet to document and essay her life and efforts on planet Earth!
Since a tiny girl growing up in varied and exotic venues, Mary Alice's focus has been on point to create a superior world for the animals with whom we share this planet.
Those of us aboard this spinning globe we call "home", who are in tune with her character and spirit, take incredible joy in her moving and inspiring website and her selfless devotion to her work, dreams and goals. This multi faceted woman and her work of art is dedicated to those she has vowed to cherish and defend to the end. Be it Thomas Turkey, the beloved Sir Alfred or the other countless members of the zoological Pollard family that bear her family name but no resemblance, well almost none, - each and every divine creature holds a singular place in the life and heart of Mary Alice.
Mary Alice is a creature of many talents. A design genius is most definitively not her only credit listing. Her self taught photographic techniques and the breathtaking images she captures through her passion for the lens, are stunning, brilliant and a true reflection of her soul and her vision of life on this "planet".

With heavy hearts, our dream for our hands on rescue has had to end. We will never forget - our Jollity Farm
January 20th., 2012
THE LITTLE JOLLITY FARM IN THE MEADOW HAS MOVED to CORNWALL ANIMAL RETIREMENT Eden - CARE in Truro.
 A Song Called 'Home' and good hearts in Cornwall by Maria Daines

 To be asked to be the patron of CVFA is a treasure to me. I travelled from Norfolk to Cornwall back in 2006, alongside my Daughter Angel to visit not only Jollity Farm, but also two of the most wonderful people we could ever hope to meet, our dear Mary-Alice and Chris Pollard.
Oh such joy, an experience to lift the spirit and guide your inspirations to do more good in this world. Not only did we meet all the the dear animals and birds that dear Chris and Mary-Alice had taken under their wing, we met all their numerous good friends and good people they had around them, people who all had the same kindred spirit of Mary-Alice and Chris.
Since then we have seen the the cruel hard material world 'humans' destroy our precious Jollity Farm, but never have we seen Mary-Alice's and Chris' passion waiver in their loyalty to animals and we have seen the birth of Little Jollity Farm and support it rising.
I know with your help we can see Jollity Farm rise again please support CVFA as its a voice that not only helps animals in Cornwall but its a voice heard across the world making a difference to those creatures who do not have a voice be heard loud and clear. Together we can make difference.

BY WRITING & PLAYING MUSIC, I AM EXPOSING MYSELF TO THE WORLD AND TRYING TO MAKE IT ABETTER PLACE FOR ALL CREATURES ! Life without joy & song and playfulness is incomplete.The beauty of music uplifts our spirits and shows us the face of Our creator. For many men & women, music is their means of Meditation and conscious contact with God.
When we experience the creativity of a musical piece, as it speaks to us. We take a step beyond the practical world, into the profound level of creation. Some people say, " How can you celebrate when there is so much suffering, so much to grieve about ? " We have grieved; We continue to grieve alongside our joy. But we need not pour all our energies into the painful and the sad.Life is also wonderful. Music and dance and the joy of good friends enrich our lives and strengthen us to go on.

Honor the Earth, our Mother.
Honor the Elders.
Honor all with whom we share the Earth:
Four-leggeds, two-leggeds, winged ones,
Swimmers, crawlers, plant and rock people.
Walk in balance and beauty.

Without a doubt, the most dangerous thing that can happen in our society, is to allow ANYONE to kill or torture an animal and get away with it. Read First Strike: The Connection Between Animal Cruelty and Human Violence
" Animal cruelty in children should not be taken lightly. Children who abuse animals shoud receive immediate professional psychological intervention for both their own welfare and that of the community. " http://www.humanesociety.org/ssues/abuse_neglect/qa/cruelt_violence_connection_faq.html
In the world of advocacy, whether it's for human or animal causes, it seems sometimes there are very well-defined lines drawn in the sand....

 " It takes a very special person to put in the time and effort to help out the little guys who have no voice ..... and you are also the voice of me and a million others like me who get lost, and distracted in our own tiny little worlds and dont do as much as we should to help stamp out Animal cruelty .... If we forget to pray for the angels, then the angels will forget to pray for us ..... keep up the good work and i'm honoured to have you as a freind. " -Chris Bolister -
