Can anyone help in my quest to access very modest (freezable) amounts of raw Goat's milk.
I am based between Calne & Chippenham in Wiltshire.
I am 24/7 bedridden unable to speak and barley able to eat (I am well beyond any care NHS can offer) but one thing I can still eat currently consume includes 150ml unsweetened organic soya milk as part of a special purée.
I've been urgently told to stop this & no other dairy alternatives are viable or will not do potential further harm digestively. (I've been ill since aged 28 for nine years and during that time have had raw goats milk for long periods so am happy consuming 'at my own risk' but former suppliers moved away years ago.

I agree get the St Helen's Farm milk.  One reason it is better than Delamere is due to freshness.  The goats are milked and the milk goes straight into a bulk tank and then from the tank to be processesed in the dairy. 

Delamere buy in all their milk so it goes into the bulk tank and gets collected by a tanker, either daily or every other day, from the tanker into the dairies bulk tank then processed.

St Helens do buy in from other farms as well but with 4,000 milking goats it is a good chance that the liquid milk is from those housed next to the dairy.

St Helens milk is very fresh.  It is entirely probable goats to be milked in the morning and the milk to go into the cartons on that day.  They buy in milk from other family farms in the Yorkshire and Midlands which is tinkered in regularly.

The milk is very mild and not at all goaty.  They also run a very tight ship on all aspects of quality.
