Education and Outreach

We take public engagement and compassionate learning seriously.

We believe that rescue alone is not the solution. To create a better future for all animals, we must identify the problems facing them, raise awareness of their plight, and encourage others to make more informed and compassionate lifestyle choices, which will make animal cruelty obsolete.

Animal ambassadors

The lucky animals who call our sanctuary home are ambassadors for their species. Though they may not speak, their stories do. We proudly share their inspiring journeys to shed light on the realities of farm animal treatment. Through their experiences, we aim to foster a deeper understanding and encourage everyone to make more ethical choices.

Making the connection

We believe in the power of personal connections. That’s why we open our doors to visitors of all ages, from School Trips and Work Experience placements to Sanctuary Tours and Ethical Animal Experiences. By spending one-on-one time with our residents, visitors get to see them as the unique individuals they are, often leaving with a commitment to adopting more compassionate lifestyle choices.

Online outreach

Our online outreach extends our mission far beyond the sanctuary’s gates. Through our digital platforms, we raise awareness about the issues facing farm animals, support national campaigns, and share uplifting content from our sanctuary. We strive to educate and inspire positive change, showing the world how every animal deserves to be treated with kindness and respect.

Outdoor Education Area

To support our educational offering, we have created a dedicated Outdoor Education Area to complement our Indoor Classroom. Together, these areas are used to immerse our visitors in sanctuary life and the natural world, where they can learn about topics such as animal husbandry and welfare, native ecology, conservation and sustainability.
